Cask. (ABV 4.5%). Slightly hazy pale amber colour with small beige head, that lasts for a while. Aroma is flowery and mild fruity hops along with some wooden hints. Flavour quite much the same with some grassy tones in the finish. Not much Xmas over it, unless it pretends to be Santa’s sweat or something.

Cask gravity dispense at Blakes, Dover December 2004. Ruby colour with thinnish head. This ale has some good malt and not bad for a Christmas seasonal

Aroma is citrus hops going onto peachytness with biscuit malts coming through. Taste is similar floural at times and perhaps not as peachy as i like them but still nice with a decent bitter finish.

Amber colour. Malty aroma. Sweetish palate, with subtle fruit and some dry malt coming through late, together with a little bitterness. Low hop profile. Not very Christmassy, more like an autumnal best bitter. OK, but not that much happening. Cask (handpump), Lord Moon of the Mall (JDW), Whitehall, London.

Cask conditioned handpump Crosse Keys London. A golden beer with a soapy white head. The aroma is icy. Lemony hops and vanilla cream in the mouth. A chewy texture. Average at best.

Dec, 2003 Gravity fresh @ Pig’s Ear Festival, East London. Light fruit aroma - slight hint of Marris Otter. Scintillating fresh rush of citric tones softly backed by a gentle pale malt sweetness. A restrained bitterness. A pleasant fruity bitter. [3.1]
Dec, 2009 JDW, Rochester. Pale and dusty hoppy. Quite dry with a faint pineapple fruit. Nice enough. [3.0]

Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm. Clear golden, low dissapearing head Strong grassy aroma, notes of sweet pears and apricot. Dry mineraly and grasy flavour with subtle notes of oranges and raspnerries. Papery dry aftertaste. An avarge bitter with bohemian lager accents.
