A balanced beer which is both sustaining and refreshing and has gone down extremely well with the Walkers are Welcome group. A saison beer brewed with some local foraged herbs and best Norfolk malt from Branthill Farm.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Kenny. Pours clear gold with a tight, creamy white head. The nose holds strong lemon zest, ginger. Light sweet flavour with a hint of ash, oil and rubber, ripe citrus, dried green herbs. Meidum bodied, oily, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, more green herbs, wheat bread, alcohol, phenols. So so.

Bottle at L42 - thanks to Ken. It pours hazy deep yellow - gold with a medium white head. The aroma is quite herbal upfront and throughout, straw, bit floral and streak of lemony citrus. The taste is crisp, dry, decent hit of bitterness, bone dry, spiced, hay, straw, dull sweetness, cracker with a dry, heavy spiced finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Quite robust. interesting stuff.

Taste is earthy, bread, biscuit, berries, fruity, zesty citrus rind, herby, woody spruce hoppy and tangy yeasty notes. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, finish is dry with slightly metallic bitter notes. Quite drinkable.

Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. Super hazy, deep gold. Thin, tight, creamy, off white head that stays the course. Good looking beer. Nose has fruited, yeasty bread. Rye spice. Cracked pepper. Light on the rosemary. Taste is fairly dry. Some bready sweetness. Lots of the rosemary on the palate, giving it an oily, slick feel, tempered by a light and bright carbonation level. Finish gets some spicy bitterness that grows and lingers. Haven't had a Poppyland beer in a while, and had forgotten how complex and enjoyably different they are.
