Cask; Regular.
Award winning new recipe. A light golden colour with a high proportion of wheat and corn giving it a clean fresh taste on top of which there is masses of hop, fruit and citrus flavours with elderflower on the nose.

Cask at Blackfriars Inverness. When I first tasted this I noted its crispness, with a good healthy amount of citrus flavours. Nice light gold appearance.

Tasting notes from 2003 Harbury beer festival. One of my favorites of the festival. Golden-Orange with then white head. Citrus, floral, and biscuit aroma notes. Citrus, sweet fruit, and balancing hop flavours. Fresh, dry finish.

On gravity at the Bristol Beer Festival 14/3/08. Golden coloured with a decent white head. Grainy malt, citrus and grassy hop aroma. Full mouth feel with plenty of fruit flavour and a long, dry finish. Good.

Gravity cask at the Battersea Beer Festival, 6th Feb 2008. Light amber appearance. Very fruity aroma with pear and pineapple notes particularly evident. Flavour is likewise very fruity, but with a nice hoppy bitterness at teh finish. Very good beer.
Re-rate at GBBF 08. Slight upward change in scores. A great ale.
