Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of grapefruit and fresh hops. Fruity taste with citrus (grapefruit), apricots and fresh citrussy, lemony hops in a rather bitter finish. Light body, balanced sweetness. Very nice and refreshing bitter with a generous hop character (as usual with the Twickenham ales). PJClarke (709), London, Greater London, England

Great looking. A zingy orange with twists and turns of light head. The nose is lightly barnyard with hints of satsuma and a light eggyness. A lovely round bitterness explodes into the mouth. Plenty of roasty, toasty light malts full of caramel vigour are lifted and thrown around by the bustling hoppiness. The palate is lightly oily with hints of carbonation. It is a darned tasty beer with a long nutty finish. SaintMatty (1236), Tallinn, Estonia

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 22, 2009 Cask. At The Old Fountain. Pale clear amber-tinged gold with an average creamy off-white head. Oooh - lovely pungent grassy-bitter aroma, slightly herbal, with just a faint light grain malt presence - this one’s pretty much all about the hoppiness. The taste follows the nose - grassy, no alcohol, with a long fresh and pungent linger. Light bodied, fairly astringent, crisp, mildly carbonated, and very refreshing - really, really good. diabel (1372), Aarschot, Belgium
