Pale amber/gold colour. Clean hoppy aroma, with some floral touches, but not too strong. It’s not clear what the five hop that go into this beer are. Fruity in the middle palate, with a dry, smooth finish. Cask (gravity dispense) at Bedford Beer Festival 2004.

Cask Stillage at the King’s Hall, Stoke on Trent Beer Festival 19/10/2007 Hoppy aroma. Clear golden coloured hoppy and fruity with a crisp dry and bitter lasting floral malt finish.

Cask. Hoppery colour, a bit hazyness, creamy mediumsized white head, which stays for quite a while. Aroma is flowery hops along with honey, caramel and some slight fruity notes also. Flavour is bitter hops with grassy hints. Quite dry palated thing.

Cask@Beer Hunters, Pori. Hazy pale copper brown, good creamy head. Flowery hoppy nose with notes of honey. Quite hoppy bitter (pinewood), grassy notes, good bitterness, but lacks on the malt side.

Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford (B&T). Golden with a small white head. Faint hop aroma. Taste dominated by the lasting mid bitterness. Not much else.

Cask Conditioned, at the Market Porter.
Light golden beer with good solid bitter front. Generous aroma, green, hoppy, would also agree on the faint citrus notes. Moderate length on the palate. Not crisp enough to drink all day but close.

Bottled. Golden with a dense white foam. Aromas are fresh green and citrus hops, crisp and clean. Flavours are crisp and refeshing hops with biscuit malts and citrus zest. A good golden bitter.

Cask@Bedford BF. Fairly average. Woody and earthy, light butterscotch flavours lingers around the palate aswell, not too exciting.

Cask Conditioned at the Bedford Beer Festival 2004 (Wednesday Session). Fairly malty, a little fruity, and a little soapy.
