COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask, Special;
This new beer for May has been brewed early, exclusively for this Wetherspoon real-ale festival. It is golden in colour, with an aroma which combines hops and elderflower, developing into a flavour which is crisp, dry and hoppy, with more elderflower hints emerging in the finish.

dynamiteninja (1113) - Richmond, North Yorkshire, ENGLAND - MAY 3, 2011
Cask. Firebug, Leicester. Thin white head, gold-amber body. Sulphur (convinced a lot of these Marston’s beers are brewed in Burton now), dough, hop. Bittersweet. Dry finish. Could only manage half of my pint of this. More undrinkable shit from Wychwood.
