Sweet and soft on the palate. Hints of heather and ginger spice.
wheresthepath (280), Buckinghamshire, England Jun 1, 2008 [Gravity cask at beer festival at The Retreat, Reading] Quite sweet without being sticky, floral flavours dominate with light fruits behind and a big kick of gingery spice, but this had a unique overall flavour that I can’t describe; it’s like no other beer I’ve ever tried. It’s like walking across moorland on a rare sunny spring day! Tastes a lot stronger than it is. Enjoyed this better the more I drank, and I’d happily have it again. Flavour lingered a lot afterwards. chimplechamp (393), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA May 5, 2008 cask at paisley beer fest 08- pours yellow golden with foamy head. wheat heather earth spice nose. taste is honey and very spicey with loads of heather. jwardell (21), Newton, Massachusetts, USA May 4, 2008 On Cask at NERAX 2008 Somerville, MA. Heather aroma and taste but not overpowering. A bit light for my tastes, would prefer some other flavors to balance. HarryFlashman (434), Chatham, Kent, England Jan 15, 2008 Pretty flat, thin and tasteless really. Quite fruity - not really very good. fiulijn (6010), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Dec 23, 2007 <i>Cask at Bishop’s Arms, Malmö</i><br />Hazy golden color, no head. The glass smell the egg; it covers the rest, but it doesn’t seem to be much more. Rather weak, with some dry caramel flavor, some bitterness without hop quality, light herbs. Uninteresting.
