A golden beer with an OK head. It has a fruity typically ale aroma with hints of the cask too. It has the flat feel of cask conditioned beer. The flavor is ale-fruity, slightly tickling and ends of in a good bitterness.

[Cask at GBBF] Clear golden. Freshly citric hoppy nose. Medium sweet. Soft and light, somewhat perfumy. Gentle and hoppy with refreshing witbier qualities. Lingering aromatic, bitter finish. An excellent golden ale well worth it’s consecutive titles at GBBF.

From cask at Charlies. Pours clear and golden yellow, bubbly white head. Solid fruity hops aroma. Flavour is sweet and fruity. Light peachy accent from the hops. Quite smooth and easy. Smooth fruity and ligh bitterness in the finish. Nice one.

Casked. Golden colour, small bubbly head. Sweetish, almost urineish, aroma of fruits and wheat. Flavour of honey, fruit and flowery hops. Wellbalanced. Flavour is very nice compared to the aroma.

Golden color. Very nice hoppy aroma, fruity. Light mouthfeel, some malt, very good aromatic hop.

Blond color, no head. Wonderful fruity/hop aroma. Flows easy in the mouth, and despite the low alcohol it’s malty enough, but the hopping is delicious. I love it!
