look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 2.5
Served in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

A: Pours a hazy gold with a three finger head of decent thickness. Good retention.

Sm: Clean barley and a bit of malt. Citrus. Grapefruit. Estery hops.

T: Grapefruit. Crystal malt and estery hops complement but don't compete. Brilliantly balanced. Very well built, althought atypical for a blonde.

Mf: Crisp as hell in the finish. Nicely coarse in all the right places. Dry for a blonde, but it complements the grapefruit body. Quite fanciful actually.

Dr: I'd love to have it again... at a better price. Three and a half quid is extortion.

500ml bottle, consumed Jan 2011, BBE Jun 2011.

A - Pale golden body with a head that dissipates very rapidly, leaving a moderate amount of lacing.

S - Sweet, slightly fruity aroma with some biscuity type malts and a little hop character.

T - Hoppy tang to open, giving way to biscuity malts, slight citrus in the wings, with a decent amount of bitterness. Finishes slightly sweet and dry.

M - Quite light bodied, light tangy carbonation, crisp and dry.

D - Definitely quite a nice session ale.

500ml bottle bought online from GapWines, Belfast...

Poured a light golden honey colour. White head poured big, thick and foamy with a pock marked topping then faded to light covering with thick edging... some light carbonation bubbles drift slowly to the surface... light lacing...

Aroma - Lots of good juicy sweet fruits with maybe some tropical hints (peaches, lemons and limes, pears, some mangoes), quite grassy, floral honey, sweet biscuity (cookie dough) and grainy malts, talcum powder traces, herbal, light peppery hops...

Taste pretty much mirrors the aromas... decent grassy and peppery hop bite cuts through the biscuity malts, quite floral, metallic hints, juicy mouth watering fruits (lemons, apples, limes), some saltiness, sweet floral honey, light chalky hints...

M&D - Fairly sharp and dry... light bodied... a very quaffable and sessionble brew at 4.5%...

Overall - A pretty good and well made golden ale... nothing groundbreaking but very very drinkable...
