Cask at GBBF08. Hazy copper colour. Small white head. The flavour has some fruit at first, mostly berries, raspberry. Like watered down fruit juice. Quite drinkable, with a watery finish.

Golden Orange, zingy tingly complex fruit aromas, mellow and sweet summer fruits with light malt tones. Just a touch too floral.

Cask (gravity dispense), St Albans Beer Festival 2005. Deep orange colour. Attack of blackcurrant fruit, bit of cereal and then more watery blackcurrant on the finish. Pretty good fruit beer

Cask conditioned at the 32nd Cambridge Beer Festival, as "Belhaven Classic Fruit Beer". Dark amber colour. Strong fruity aroma of blackcurrants, blackberries, boysenberries and maybe some redcurrants too. Flavour is extremely fruity, raspberry, blackberries and redcurrants abound. A tolerable maltiness and a decent hoppy finish makes this an above-average ale. From the ratings of the pasteurized and bottled version it seems apparent that the cask version is superior.
