A very pale ale with a refreshing punch. A bamboozle of flavours combine into an excellent tasty pint.

3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Honey-like mustiness to the sweet, fruity, floral, citrus aroma. Clear golden-orange with decent white head that recedes to a lasting cover. Floral and fruity notes are featured in a well-balanced flavour split between moderate bitterness and honeyish sweetness. Medium body with lively but gentle carbonation that stimulates the tongue. Cask at GBBF 2005.

Cask conditioned @ The Gig House (Lloyds/JDW), Wokingham. Suprisingly enough for a pub which seems to be even less interested in real ale than the standard wetherspoons this was the first of two pints I had here which was in very good condition. Floral and friuty hop aromas. Quite a lot of malt flavour with a watered down toffee feel (nicer than it sounds) with the hops carrying through to the finish.

Cask at ’Spoons, Milton Keynes. Gold with a small white head. Fresh fruity aroma, perhaps a hint of apple there with the sweet malt. Rich creamy grainy malt taste with a sharp bitter finish. I liked this.

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm) Golden with a small bubbly head. Sweet fruity aroma, apple, pineapple and some pear. Fruity flavor that brings pear, sweet apples. Turns into a hoppy and almost peppery finish.
