Tonight's beer is a wet hop organic golden pale ale from the good people over at Wychwood Brewery in Oxfordshire which is the craft brewing arm of the British brewing giant Marston's PLC.

Onto the tasting...

Straw coloured with a thin off white head made up of small bubbles that disperse quickly. Aroma is sugary and very light malt. First sip is fruity almost grape like, effervescent and citrusy with light hints of grain. Very light bodied, thin and slightly watery. Aeration is creamy, apples, grapes and light citrus.

Impressions: Fail, So-so, Pass, Exceptional 

Cost: 5/6 PASS
Colour: 5/6 PASS
Beer Style: 4/6 PASS
Re-Order:  5/6 PASS
Experience:  4/6 PASS

Final Thoughts:

Not at all what I expected, but good nonetheless. very light and refreshing but getting late in the year for this beer I would prefer it out on the patio.

Cheers
