Double Swan from Elgood and Sons Ltd
Rating: B
Appearance: pours a golden honey color with a fluffy white head which leaves copious amounts of lacing in rings after each sip.
Smell: floral and grainy, grainy/grassy combination slightly reminiscent of a continental pilsener, but a bit of ale fruitiness seeps through.
Taste: solidly bitter for the style, hops are more spicy/herbal than anything else. aftertaste lingers. malt profile is simple and leaves something to be desired.
Mouthfeel: served at cask temperature, but probably would have benefited from more chilling. somewhat creamy texture, light-medium body.
Drinkability: fairly average for the style
Serving type: bottle
