Ian | 16 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. | |

Brian | 09 Feb 2013 | Really nice, stingy hop. | |
Ian | 02 Dec 2006 | Had all of the elements, grapefruit/tangerine fruit, citrus hops that leave a bitter taste in the mouth. It just lacked a little depth from perfection. | |
Andrew | Not Tried | 02 Dec 2006 | |
Ian | 27 Jun 2006 | It was probably better than this, but to me it seemed to lack a bit of citric intensity | |
Ian | 17 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. | |
Andrew | 17 Jun 2006 | A bit too cold but very drinkable. | |
Ian | 31 May 2006 | Had a pint whilst at the pub, which was good but just lacking its usual clarity of flavours. However, the take home I had the next day was absolutely superb. | |
Andrew | Not Tried | 12 May 2006 | |
Ian | 09 May 2006 | Pale gold with a lasting white head. Stunning grapefruit, tangerine aroma, plenty of hops. Good and juicy in mouth with distinctive hop finish. Just a stunning beer. My favourite beer and in this condition was unsurpassable. | |

Andrew | 31 Dec 2005 | Very pale yellow. Astringent hoppyness with a lemon citrus nose. | |

Ian | 02 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. | |
Ian | 07 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 | |
Ian | 22 Mar 2005 | Pale gold colour, grapefruit and tangerine on the nose, light in the mouth with citrusy fruit, hops and a zingy finish | |

Andrew | 11 Dec 2004 | Now a score of Excellent from me is saying somethign when it comes to JHB. ...but this beer really was excellent. Very very hoppy but with a fruity depth to it that I've rarely tasted in pub bought pint of it. Loverly. |

Ian | 19 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. |

Ian | 07 Oct 2009 | Slight haze, but perfect grassy aroma, lovely tangerine and grapefruit flavours. Fresh as hell. Ended up drinking 4 pints of this and each time I was stunned at the drinkability. Couldn't fault it each time. Made me realise why this was the beer that got me into micro breweries. | |

Ian | 12 Aug 2005 | Initially not too bad with typical pale gold colour and grapefruit/tangerine/hop aromas. However, as the pint went down, it was clear that there was something not right. Problem was the diacetyl (buttery/butterscotch aroma or taste). Ruined it. |

Andrew | 14 Mar 2009 | When she poured it the colour amazed me. Looked like a vampire had got there first; a paler beer I've not seen since Ventor's White Spirt. Anyway it tasted good; very quaffable. Quite citrus-hoppy but in the pantheon of citrus hoppy beers it's at the bottom of the mountain staring up longingly at Dark Star's Hophead. |

Ian | 15 Mar 2009 | Many of the beers only had a few pints left according to Tom apart from the JHB which was fresh on and in fantastic form. Just how I remembered it on top form in The Mogul in Dover and why I got into micro breweries in the first place. |

Ian | 18 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! |

Ian | 14 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. |

Ian | 04 Aug 2005 | Oakham had their own stand at this beer festival so they could keep control of the quality of their product. All 3, JHB, Bishops Farewell and White Dwarf were 5/5 stunners. All with the distinctive Oakham characteristics, yet all indentifiably different. JHB was wonderful with lots of grapefruit and tangerine and hops |

3.80% ABV.
A golden beer whose aroma is dominated by hops that give characteristic citrus notes. Hops and fruit on the palate are balanced by malt and a bitter base. Dry hoppy finish with soft fruit flavours.
