Recently produced for the first time by UK growers and combining them with the finest Cornish malted barley, they have produced a beer that is high in complex aromatics, with floral cedar, citrus notes and a long, bittersweet finish.

50cl bottle from Tesco, Camberley. A hazy pale amber pour with a thin white head; floral and citrus aroma; crisp flinty taste with some citrus fruit and a chalky body; and a lingering grassy bitterness to finish. Quite pleasant.

Clear golden beer with a thin head. Light and slightly sour hop aroma. Flavour is watery but the hop still comes through. Smells better than it tastes.

500ml bottle. Pours golden with a frothy head that just about lasted to the bottom of the glass. Grassy hints on the nose, but not much else. Taste is biscuit and slight citrus. Decent session beer

Cask at Akkurat. Sweet fruity aroma of Apples and spring flowers. Nice sweet malt, modern hops, pear, grass and a hint of soap. Very drinkable

Cask @ Akkurat. Heavy on the citrus, orange, fun notes of chewing gum, and honey! Sweet in two ways! Smoooth.

On cask at the Haymarket. Appearance - golden with a proportionate head. Nose - very faint pale malt and lemon. Taste - oranges and resin. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long and fairly fresh finish. Overall - quite a lot of oat malt from what I can taste. Good texture but not as big on flavour.

Cask at Haymarket. Pours clear pale gold, thin white head. Light floral hop aromas, biscuit. Taste is light sweet, light bitter finish. Nothing exciting, but not bad either.
