An amber beer with a huge light orange head. The aroma is sweet and very floral. The flavor is sweet nutty with fruity notes of oranges, as well as a flowery note. Slightly sticky mouthfeel.

(Bottle 50 cl) Very pretty amber colour, clear with a thick, off-white head lacing my glass. Lovely, floral hoppy nose. And the aroma hops really dominate this beer throughout - fat and extremely aromatic and full hop flavour, but not really that bitter. Part of the revenue from this beer goes to the Royal Botanic Gardens (Kew Gardens) work with endangered plants. 130705

Pale amber beer; little, transparent-white head. Chalky, creamy initially, very little else, really. Extremely remarkable vegetable taste - absolutely knolselder (tuber-celery?); sweetish, bit medicinal, keeps in the aftertaste. Very watery, light bodied. Yeah, watery, not much else. I fear the hopharvest at Kew Gardens is very modest.

Bottle - great rich hops and malt aroma - extremely pleasant. Dark tan with light brown head. A well-balanced brew - excellent hops flavor with no bitterness (must be something in those Kew hops).
