IanExceptional16 Sep 2007 The best I've had it for many months, in fact I think since they moved the brewery. Lovely grapefruit and tangerine juice with a drying hoppy finish and great mouthfeel too. I would drink this even if it didn't have alcohol in.

IanGood27 Jun 2006 It was probably better than this, but to me it seemed to lack a bit of citric intensity
IanExcellent17 Jun 2006 Like Andrew with Goacher's Mild, I am so critical of this beer, because I like it so much and I've had many pints of it in all sorts of conditions. Still this was excellent and I stayed on this all evening as it was so good. Pale gold, aromatic US hops and a taste that makes you come back for more.
AndrewExcellent17 Jun 2006 A bit too cold but very drinkable.

IanExcellent02 Jun 2005 Owner said that he had had some trouble with the fining of this barrel and had to put into minipins with extra finings before serving. Still tasted good though. Nose of grapefruit/tangerine and hops. Blond gold beer that is an easy drinking session beer with lots of interesting citrus flavours that make you want to keep trying it.
IanExceptional07 Apr 2005 Pale gold colour. Wonderful aroma of hops and citrus fruit (grapefruit and tangerine). Good in mouth with a hoppy, flowery, bitter, citrus fruit finish. Superb session beer

IanGood19 Jan 2007 It'll be interesting to see if the quality can be maintained now that they have had to move the brewery. Pale gold beer, lasting white head. Bit yeasty on aroma, citrusy in mouth, but certainly not at its best. Good citric hop finish, but just a bit funky with the yeast running through it.

IanGood25 Apr 2008 Very drinkable and just what you would expect, light, citrusy and appealing.
IanExceptional18 Jan 2006 I asked the barman to take off the sparkler before he poured it. He said that it didn't sound an odd request, just Southern. Glad I asked him to do it anyway for this is a glorious beer. Pale gold, thin white head. The fruit! I mean the fruit! The grapefruit/lemon curd is wonderful. I have fallen in love with this all over again. Hop aroma is just the right side of astringent. Fruit is there, but balancing. In the mouth its full and juicy with more grapefruit and lemon. Finish has more of the same. Nectar, drink of the Gods, superlatives fail me. The alcohol doesn't come into it. I will drink this until a herd of cows come down Hardman Street. Won't be long then, just need to wait until Friday night!

IanExceptional14 Jul 2006 So my homage to this beer continues. One of my proudest moments was to get a middle aged woman clutching a glass of white wine to try it. The liveliness in the mouth impressed her even though she said she wasn't a bitter drinker and then the tangerine/grapefruit finish rather amazed her. Yeasty aroma, creamy lively mouthfeel, with spritzy citrus finish. Utterly amazing. Smooth. If i had one very small criticism, I would say that it's a bit too yeasty on the aroma, but I don't care because of the mouthfeel and the finish. I mean the finish is just so spectacular. Will be even better on the next day. So fresh.
