A characteristically light hoppy beer using mainly optic pale malt with a mixture of Goldings and Styrian Goldings hops, which gives a distinct light bitter taste with a pleasing aroma.

Slightly hazy amber. Smells a bit funk - Sun says rambutan and I think that’s reasonable. Fruity-hoppy character, perhaps a bit overripe. Melony finish. Not to my taste, if nothing else.

Cask-conditioned at the Cask & Kitchen, London 11/1/11. Amber coloured with a decent, off-white head. Malty bitter, with some cereal notes, a touch of fruit and decent bitter finish. Ok.

Light amber color. Wet rug aroma, earthy too; it’s overall a grassy, earthy beer, with light manure, soft malt flavor, average bitterness.

(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Amber colour with brief, off-white head. Malty, nutty nose with notes of dried fruit, caramel and toffee. Malty, nutty taste with dried fruit, caramel and dusty hops in the finish. Rather light body, with a touch of malt sweetness. A decent and highly drinkable bitter.

Cask@Pullman Bar, Helsinki. Golden colour, mediumsized off-white colour. Aroma is fruits, hops, some slight yeast and quite wooden. Flavour is fruits, wooden, mild yeastyness as well as some smoooth grassyness lurking. As it warms up it gets some caramelly notes as well.
