<b>Cask ale </b> <br /> <b>Appearance :</b>Bright hazy amber, porous rocky top. <br /> <b>Nose :</b>Tropical fruits , citrus , grapefruit , sweet honey on golden grain.6+<br /><b>Flavour/Palate:</b><br />Soft character with weak like base that was neatly paired with citric touches. Some of session character, some of wheat and pale ale. Neat crossover brew.

Cask. Murky yellow-orange with a bubbly white ring of head. Smells fresh and leafy with lots of pineapple along with apricot and orange zest. Quite dry, bready in the middle, zesty orange flavouring...Refreshing and tasty.

<b>Cask</b>. <i>At BeerBistro, 2007 Golden Tap Awards</i>. This was voted best of fest, and it was a toss-up for me whether this or the Scotch-Irish smoked beer; Poured a murky pale orange-yellow, with a small bubbly off-white head - looked great, couldn’t figure out what this mystery beer was, but if it’s a hefe, it looks great. Up-front aroma was of tart tropical fruits, almost overripe and sour, the sourness deepened as it warmed - light candy malt and plenty of green herbal hops and spice. The taste really caught me off guard - unexpectedly bitter over the base of sweet tart fruity malt, hints of licorice and a nice acidity to it. Thick yet light body &#40;I know, I know&#41;, acidic, mild carbonation, a syrupy, overripe fruit linger .... an very nice malt/spice concoction that while not exactly balanced, was fresh and packed a punch, and quite a taste/aroma discontinuity to it.

<i>Cask at 2007 Golden Tap Awards, beerbistro.</i> Pours a hazy orange with a spare diminishing white head. Nice aroma with lots of hops and fruit. Flavour’s oh so easy to drink! Lots of hops and fruit all well balanced -- very simple but very enjoyable. Average bodied. Great stuff, i could easily have pint after pint of this.
