The winning brew of The Great British Homebrew Challenge. Pouring hazy gold, the beer has an aroma of rose, lemon, chamomile and coriander. The taste is tart and slightly fruity, with a silky mouthful that culminates in a kiss of hops.

Bottle@Lars place - Clear golden yellow coloured pour with white head. Medium tart fruity with notes of lemon citrus, medium to light body, with some herbal and floral action going on into the tart fruity close.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, yellow-ish golden colour with small, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Perfumed, floral aroma, soapy hints of rose petals, some chamomile, reminds of old aunts half bath - the rose flavours turn out to be rather ephemeral, a nice biscuity, chamomile induced malty aroma remains. Taste is sweet-ish malty, minimally wheaty, floral, well integrated notes of chamomile; minimally watery passages, floral and minimally citrusy, tart-ish finish with an additional touch of lemon and a rose petal comeback. Quite unique, very interesting taste, the aroma isn't equally appealing,

Bottled 330ml. -from Pivoljub Ljubljana. Pale golden coloured, small to medium sized white head, mild citrusy nose. Sweet malty, light caramel, citrusy hoppy and some herbal tea like notes with touch of chamomile in the finish. Interesting.

Bottle at Taps Beer Bar, Changkat, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a crystal clear straw colour with a frothy white head and lots of bubbles. The aroma is grainy malt, floral chamomile. The flavour is moderate sweet with a smooth, light tart fruit, light dry spice, floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Like nothing I ever tasted before and it’s not so easy to rate. The chamomile is right up front along with the floral characteristics and the light dry spicy palate comes through in the finish. Do I like it? Yes I think I do, but it might be a shock to the system for some punters.

330ml bottle. Slightly hazy orange with a medium white head, creamy and long lasting. Aroma is very floral, roses, chamomile, lemon, coriander. Taste is massively floral, coriander and lemon, sweet, bready, finish is nicely spicy, coriander and cinnamon. Light-medium body, smooth, soft carbonation. An interesting beer for sure, well made, found it too floral but can see why others will love this.

From Pivoteka, thanks Stela! Murky yellow body, white head. Citric nose, light rose, hibiscus tea. Soft taste, hibiscus tea (I know there is none), chamomile, some soft rose notes. Actually well done, nice, so if you dig this kind of flavor profile, you'll love this.

Bottle from Waitrose. Appearance - bright yellow before yeast dropped in at least. Nose - fresh candied lemon almost like a saison. Taste - fruit crumble notes with some cinnamon or nutmeg in there. Apples too. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy texture. Long dry tangy finish. Overall - love it.

Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours hazy yellow gold with a thick white head. Aromas of light rose a bready spice. Faint orange peel. Taste is light coriander seed spice, not picking up much rose on the taste. Good yeast character, almost a saison.
