Cask; Seasonal - available June to August.
A light colored, refreshing Summer Wheat beer. A distinct aroma of vanilla with an initial burst of sweetness complimented by a subtle banana flavor with a hint of lemon followed by a complex dry finish which says "Get me another".

A mid golden yellow coloured beer with a weak white head. A light but pleasant floral nose, Earl Grey tea, hoppy with some citrus fruit. A weak mouthfeel, but plenty of floral hop, Earl Grey tea again, some citrus fruit and a hint of biscuity malt. Dry hoppy finish. (Cask - The Ouse Amateur Sailing Club, King’s Lynn, Norfolk).

Handpulled cask at JDW St. Albans during summer. A golden coloured beer spoiled by diacetyl in both the aroma and taste. The aroma is also on the sweet side and there is some hoppiness in the taste. Didn’t get any wheat character at all..

Cask at Bree Louise. Very pale golden beer with a creamy white head. Nice bright citrusy aroma. Lemon, orange and tropical fruits. Lightly spicy malty character, quite wheat on the nose. Flavour is light and citrusy with a fresh grassy/spicy hoppiness. The challengers in here are quite expressive with a nice orange peel and soft spiciness that accents the lemony spicy wheat. Very pleasant pint.

Cask (handpump) @ The Corner House, B3, Birmingham. Clear light yellow color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, fully diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate hoppy, flowers, grass, moderate yeasty, orange, notes of cinnamon. Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to heavy bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat.

Cask conditioned @ Humble Plumb, Soton. Pale. Not especially flavoursome straight up but in the mouth there are pleasant leafy piney hops which lead into quite a tangy bitter finish. Pretty good but not really your usual wheat beer.

Bon Accord. Aroma is grassy, hints of citrus lemon, very fresh. Taste has light wheatyness to it, again very clean and fresh.

Half pint at The Falkland Arms in Great Tew (Oxfordshire), bright gold with a thin bubbly head. A good clean citrus fruit aroma. The palate is smooth at first, then a light bitterness comes through. There was a slight soapiness to the light fruit flavour though.

Cask handpump (no sparkler) at The White Horse, Harborne, Birmingham. Copper with a decent sized foamy head. Oranges and apples in the scent. Slight fizz in the mouth; sweet at first then very bitter with a dry finish. Slightly watery. Very full of hops with a hint of cereal malts. Spoilt by a metallic/chemical aftertaste which became apparent after a few mouthfulls. Good, simple but refreshing.
