Copper color, bright. Scarce white foam, in style.
Citric notes, fresh, tea and camomile.
A good grassy note in the taste, again citric, and earthly, well balanced.
Typical english, citric, tangerine, lemon. And grassy notes.
Pleasant.

Golden with large head and strong carbonation. Light lemon, malt aroma with hint of hops. Taste is sweet biscuit, caramel, hint of earth, grass and long but mild bitter finish.

Appearance - Pale autumnal gold colouration with a soapy 2 finger head that has good retention. Plenty of sticky lace and nice streaming CO2 activity in the glass.
Smell - Plenty of herbal citrus hops and nice biscuit malt and mild brown bread.
Taste - Sharp and fresh there is some mild biscuit and brown bread malts but this is balanced by a very nice bitter grapefruit citrus hop. The flavour here is pretty good and has sufficient linger.
Mouthfeel - Medium body with a very slight metallic leaning and a lightly cloying finish but in this instance the cloying end is not unpleasant but helps to support the linger.
Overall - This is definately the best thing I have had that came from the Badger team. It is pretty fresh and has a nice hoppy finish and pretty good linger.

Very hoppy.
Sharp citrus but earthy base notes. Rather unusual.
There's lots there but I can't say I like it.
Badger try really hard but still can't quite manage it.

Some prickly bitterness on the finish & some flavour in there
I can make actually make out the Amarillo hops, this is the best thing (apart from Poachers) to come out of Badger's bottle. Bet it's good on cask.
