This expoded out the bottle producing a massive head.Once it subdued it left a hop dominated golden ale with a bitter edge.Mouthfeel was o.k but overall not one of this brewerys better brews.

(Hand Pulled) A pale gold colour, with a reasonable white head. Little aroma, smooth tasting and very refreshing. Dry, hoppy finish with palate cleansing properties.

BCA aged 9 mths. Golden beer with small white head. When opened young, this is a bit of a lively one, but a bit of further conditioning calms it down. Initial taste is very tart, CO2 tinny, but allow it to settle and out comes a warming rosy apple type flavour. Fresh hoppy lingering flavour a good BCA for a summers afternoon and boy is this a scorcher.

Bottled. Golden colour with a lacy white head. Looks nice enough but doesn't smell or taste that great. Dirty bitter tasting. Tarte, very short finish.

Amber; fruity-hoppy (berries, pine needles); somewhat refreshing in the finish.

This beer was quite bitter. Not anything special.

I lost half the contents after opening. I took the cap off, put the bottle on the table, then was distracted for a second or two. When I glanced back down the beer was bubbling up the neck and running smoothly down the outside of the bottle, spreading across the table in the shape of a dog cocking his leg. When I eventually got round to drinking the beer after the cleaning up operation I found it very refreshing but a little restrained. I think I’ll try again with a full bottle!

A straw coloured beer that is meant for a summers day (if we get any). Still, not bad any weather. Very Gluggable!
