| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Nov 19, 2009 (bottle) Clear, golden colour with a big fluffy white head. Pale malty and dusty (diacetyl) nose with shy fruity hoppy notes in the background. Sweet flavour, light bodied with a soft carbonation. Pale and slightly sugary malty base with notes of biscuits and a decent citric hops presence; slightly sticky, faint bitter finish. Unfortunately way too sweet. 19.XI.09

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 17, 2009 This was a left over from the ill-fated Sainsbury’s Festival of earlier this year. Gold. Aroma of piney thyme honey. Flavour is sweet, sticky and slightly cloying, and it’s not matching my mood at the moment. If only there was a sharp bitter kick! renffisch (519), london, Greater London, England

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Nov 6, 2009 Bottle, Sainsbos, Upton. Expectations were pretty low for this effort, and had it put to one side to drain down alongside a curry. Lagery looks. Slightly malty aroma with some trace hop. Dryish finish. As far as a cold guzzler goes I suppose it ain’t bad. In the lagery scheme of things its probably above average and you could do a lot lot worse in the genre. sm89walt (450), Canterbury, Kent, England
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 15, 2009 4.7% bottle. Clear, relatively fizzy golden yellow with an initial one finger head that mostly dissipated. Vegetable, corn, herb & citric lemon aromas with some floral notes. Citrus tones in the flavour with some nuttiness and grain. Light, crisp bitterness with a grainy aftertaste. Light in body with medium carbonation.
