Cask. Hazy pale amber colour, small foamy head. Aroma is sweet fruits, some ripe fruits, mild floral notes as well as some biscuity and bready notes. Flavour is similar, but also has a slight alcoholic sting to it. Yet easy to drink and balanced.

Cask @Le Bon Bock (Rome). Pours deep golden/pale amber with a minimal head. Aroma of malt, biscuit, caramel, fruity notes, apple, peach, lemon. Flavour is balanced but a bit boring, medium malty with a decent bitter end. Medium body, medium to light carbonation. So so...

Sampled @ GBBF day 3. Clear orange golden color, medium sized white head. Smell and taste malts, hops, orange, a touch of orange peel, some resin and pine, pretty bitter. Medium body and carbonation. Not a total success imo, but drinkable.

Pours aout with a clear, light amber color. Topping it is a very small white head with poor retention. The aroma is pleasantly fruity and sweet, not to strong but still easily picked up. The taste is sweet and feels creamy. Slight fruits, finishing with some roasty feel and bittery finish. A lasting hoppy aftertaste is nice. Very drinkable, expected it to be much stronger, but is actually pretty easy.
