Samuel Smith's Organically Produced Ale
Pours from a 550ml bottle into my nonic with about 3/4 finger head, which dissapates somewhat quickly to a ring at the edge. No real lacing. The color is golden and amber. Smell is malt with a touch of apple, and a tiny bit of hops. Taste is biscuity malt, yeast and apples, and a tiny bit of what I think is the hard water, as I've noticed it in other Sam Smith beers. It's not overpowering, though. As the beer warms it becomes a little more malty and yeasty and a little less fruity. I like the fruitiness myself so that's kiind of a bummer but the taste stays balanced the whole time. Mouthfeel seems about right on for the style, carbonation is present but not excessive. This is a good beer, gobs better than the Bass pints I've had in various bars, though I prefer it on the colder edge of the temperature range.
