Pours nearly clear straw color with 1 finger tall thick white head, lasting realy long. There're a lot of tiny bubbles, like sparkling wine. Smells a lot like fresh honey, berries for sure, some malts & hops as well. The taste is a bit faint: slight berries, malts, slight bitter finish. Light-bodied with soft carb. I'd like to drink it time to time.

Light and clear looking golden amber with a thin, bubbly white head that is about half a centimetre tall and has decent retention before turning to a thin lacing.
Hops and floral note are present, along with some lighter malts and a vague smell of berrues coming through. There is quite a sweet aroma with some citrus and possibly some lychee as well. It is quite a light smelling beer though.
Sweet malts and a definite floral note to start as well as some lighter hops and a background fruit taste. There is a moderate, earthy bitterness to th ebeer to round things off with too.
Smooth to taste and with a medium body and a mild citrus tang to it. There is again a light bitter finish to this one.
A nice pale ale that has some good fruity notes and a pleasant, malty base to it. The beer is quite drinkable and goes down very easily. It would make a good session beer.

Bottle with freshness date four months away describes this as a county pale ale. This is straw coloured with a head which rapidly recedes to the rim. It looks like American mainstream swill but the nose, while sweet and indstinct, is nonetheless much fresher than the hopefully misleading appearance.
Initially it tastes very sweet and then the idiosyncratic elderflower and a hint of bitterness kicks in. This is pretty good despite the mediocre appearance.

Poured from a 500ml bottle into a pint glass.
Pours a light golden colour with a small head and some faint lacing.
Smells vaguely hoppy and malty.
Tastes nicely balanced as well, malts up front with hops finishing and adding a citrusy bitter taste.
Overall an ok bitter. Prefer others though.

Beautiful almost continental pilsner nose this pours a reasonably thick white velvety head on top of the light slightly hazy yellowy body. Positive fine beading sustains that nice head leaving rings of delicate lacing with every sip.
Slight carbonic quality but never burpy.
A refreshing quenching taste which is lemony and zesty with a reasonably long gently chewy bitterness at the end.
Another great Williams Bros beer that rewards your wits and your patience. Will be great at the BBQ this summer (if we actually get one).

Pours gold with lively head that settles to a none to impressive film fairly quickly. Looks like a good dose of carbonation from all the bubbles.
Bittering hops on the nose, citrus zest, touch of fruity malt lingering behind.
Aromatic citrus hops up front, lend the beer much of its character. Hops and herbal bitterness with a fairly generous helping of citrus zest. Sweet malt in the finish with an unfortunate touch of butter.
Drinkable bitter, though a bit on the slippery side for me.
A little ho-hum for me given how much I enjoy some of their other concoctions. Not bad though.
