Cask at GBBF '22 day 2, 03/08/22. Lightly hazed golden blonde with a good sized off white cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is tangy fruits, twiggy, hedgerow, grains. Taste comprises faint honey notes, stewed fruits, hedgerow, grass. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, light drying close. So so affair like most honey flavoured beers.

Cask @ Bowland Beer Company, Clitheroe. Golden with a small head. Its honey is evident in both aroma and taste, and this is always light making it a very easy-drinking textured ale.
