Dec 12, 2005 Sample at DougShoemaker’s 2005 December gathering - bottle courtesy of DougShoemaker. 2002 vintage. Dark golden-amber with a small white head. Aroma is quite yeasty and citric, with some dandilion notes. Flavour is flowery with some orangey notes. Seemed a little stale to me - showing it’s age, I guess. Still OK, though.

Aroma of sweet malt, citrus and yeast, amber, pours a small custard head. Very subdued malt flavour, some yeast and a slight orange taste. Light bodied, dry and sweet. Fair.

Dec 5, 2005 Thanks to Doug for this one. Dirty/cloudy copper body with a fluffy off-white head. Orange cough syrup, yeasty, corriander and some spices I can’t place in the nose. Much more reserved than the aroma suggests - orange, yeast, quite sweet. A little lemon/bitter in the finish with some toasty honey malt.
