A golden strong ale. A warming fruity flavour dominates and lingers into a dry hoppy finish.

Cask @ Montgomery’s Tower, Shrewsbury. Pours clear gold, white head. Light caramel malt aroma. Taste presents good caramel flavours. Feels like it wants to be an ESB when it grows up but for now it’s a nice light bitter with promising caramel flavours.

On cask @ the Standing Order. Appearance - golden with a decent head. Nose - mainly lemon and pale malt. Something creamy. Lemon curd? Taste - more of the same. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - another solid example of the style.

Not a great aroma for a wheat, but it has an excellent smooth style in this category and is very tasty.

Cask@The Fat Cat Pub, Norwich. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is wood, fruits, some floral notes as well as some mild nectary notes. Flavour is honey, fruits, nectar and some quite nice wooden and resiny notess. Pleasant balance and rather refreshing.
