A very fresh feel to the aroma & taste. Quite hoppy, nice lingering aftertaste.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Copper colour. Some floral hop in the aroma, but a touch of sulphur too. Fruit and a bit of hop in the flavour, but the overall feel is rather soft. Not bad, but somewhat lacking in gravitas for a 5% beer. Cask, GBBF 2004.

GBBF, London, gravity. Sampled with chris_o, ungstrup and maybe rauchbier (I was losing track by this point). Plain aroma, no head. Very sweet, fruity and smooth, with some orange. No gradiation or development. Alright, but not brilliant.

[Cask conditioned] Very pleasant aroma of flowers and sweet German white wine. The flavour is also very flowery.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Straw color and no head. Weak malt body. Not at all strong - don't know why this was listed with the porters, stouts and strong ales. Pretty poor showing.
