Aug 14, 2009 Gooseberries dominate the aroma. Flavor is up front gooseberries, warm rolls. Fine malts mid-body, fruity sour. I thought it was good.

Jul 15, 2009 Best before: August 2007. My example, unlike many of the others rated here, seems not to have gone ’off’. The bottle foamed over when I popped the cap, and that was it for the head - sweet F.A. in the glass. Oh well. The colour was a medium gold and slightly cloudy. Aroma was definitely that of gooseberry, being on the tart side. Taste was actually pleasant, again with some sour/tart going on, with a smooth mouthfeel and almost a bit sweet in the after. Only knock is too many $$ to buy this stuff (not that you’d want a lot of it).

Jul 12, 2009 500ml bottle. Slightly hazy golden colour with no head and moderate carbonation.
Sweet malt aroma, with some citrus fruit and grainy wheat. Flavour had a lot of wheat, some summer fruits and a dryish finish. A bit subdued but drinkable.

Jun 26, 2009 330 ml bottle from BevMo Salinas. Nose is whole wheat muffins with a light berry note and some floral hoppiness. Hazy gold with a small yellow tinged head. Flavor is very medicinal (bog myrtle or meadowsweet?) very light menthol hint with a wheaty base and light berry note. A tiny bit of bitterness seems to emerge from the medcinal quality in the finish which seems to sooth my throat as a very weak lozenge would.
