MiP (5096), Flensburg, Germany Sep 8, 2008 Cask, 4.2% at GBBF08. Weak but OK fruit aroma. Clear golden colour. OK fruit flavour. Very low carbonation. KimJohansen (3351), Copenhagen V, Denmark Aug 8, 2008 Cloudy golden with medium white off white head. Sweet fruity aroma with floral and caramel notes. Sweet flavor with fruity, mild hoppy and caramel notes. Ends bitter. maeib (3961), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Jun 28, 2008 Cask conditioned - handpump - Wig & Pen, Northampton. A copper coloured beer with a white head and lacing. At first the aroma seems slightly muted but then there’s a decent dash of citrus hoppiness. The hops are there from the outset though in the mouth. Nice orangey notes. Maybe some US hops in the fresh tasty mouthfeel. A nice beer. Rune (1662), Tromsø, Norway Mar 24, 2008 Half pint, cask at Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford. Dark orange coloured body without a head, but some lacing on the glass. Light hoppy aroma. Grapefruit in aroma followed by bitter malts. Crispy palate (Sunday afternoon, 16.03.2008). Magic_dave6 (3753), London, Greater London, England Mar 6, 2008 Cask in Counting house. Aroma is nutty, bready biscuity, malt based. Taste has far more fruity hoppy character going on, balanced.
