Beese (12774) - Tooting, London, Greater London, ENGLAND - APR 25, 2020
UPDATED: APR 25, 2020 12oz bottle at Bottleworks, Seattle, WA on 07/09/2008. Thought this was a pretty decent IPA; crisp and quite bitter with a zesty lemon nose.

Keg @ Maple Leaf, Covent Garden. Full bodied, heavy India Pale Ale texture but one that is full of flavour.

Bouteille. Une robe dorée très foncée avec une mousse épaisse. Un nez peu odorant avec du malt et une touche de houblon. Une bouche commerciale, sucrée, n’a d’India Pale Ale que le nom.

Bière orangée tirant un peu vers le jaune, bien limpide, bonne effervescence, et surmontée d’un col beige plutôt étroit et moyennement dense, mais assez persistant. Arômes de pain légèrement grillé, grain, céréale sucrée, accompagné d’un houblon plutôt floral et d’effluves d’alcool et de caoutchouc. On note aussi, par moment, une certaine odeur de malt fumé à tendance boisé, ainsi qu’un petit fruité (baies, framboise…). Mais somme toute, on a affaire à un nez peu intéressant et peu complexe, intensité adéquate cependant. En bouche, pétillement assez élevé sur la langue, onctuosité moyenne au palais. Au goût, entrée maltée de pain grillé, grain, céréale sucrée, maïs, sirop de maïs… avec présence possible de diacétyle (maïs soufflé). Aussi, saveurs de houblon floral, d’alcool mal intégré et de caoutchouc, accompagnées de nuances de fumée et de boisé. Finale à l’amertume légère mais tout de assez bien sentie, mais bière cependant surtout sucrée, équilibre quand même intéressant. Il s’agit définitivement plus d’une «English Pale Ale» qu’une IPA. Goût correct, complexité en bouche moyenne, intensité adéquate. Bière correcte, mais sans plus…

Clear golden pour with a sudsy head that doesn’t stay. Grassy aromas. Flavor isn’t much in the way of hops, or really anything that would warrant the label of an IPA. An easy drinker on a hot day, but forgettable and boring.

Faint aroma of citrus and grass. Clear gold colour. Mild bitter front with a spectral grapefruit flavour; finishes clean and malty. Med-light body with lively carbonation. Pleasant enough, but very ambiguous on whether this actually drinks like an IPA.

this was the biggest let down of the mix six, though expectations were low. This resembles not even the weakest of English IPAs (though I see it’s classed as an English pale here, the bottle says India), Weak hops, weak feel - this is crap, unfortunately.

Absolute garbage! So so malty. Little hops. Maybe enough hops to call it an Amber. But dear god not an ipa. It has the skunky rice cheap beer taste. No no no no no. Alright guys.... Had a milestone when I hit a perfect score. This is my legit perfectly bad score. It’s not an ipa which knocks it down big. Then even of it were a pale ale or a light or an Amber there are so many off flavors. It tastes like how my dogs piss smells. It’s just nothing is good about it other than the fact that there is some alcohol in there.

Draft @ Maple Leaf, Covent Garden WC2. Pours a golden pale amber color with a small white head. Has a fruity malty weak hoppy aroma. Fruity malty weak hoppy flavor. Has a fruity malty weak hoppy caramel finish.

Light and watery, a touch of corn with very little hop character. Not a ton of carbonation.
