Bottle from LCB, consumed 5 months past BBE. Clear gold with good sized off white head, some lacing. Aroma of bread, wheat, hay, hint of spice. Taste of clove, wheat, light banana, dry grassy and bitter finish. Medium bodied, fine carbonation. Solid but doesn't really stand out.

[33cl bottle from Beer52.] A clear amber pour (the sediment had very firmly attached itself to the bottom of the bottle) witha a thin white head and light carbonation; banana aroma; quite lively in the mouth with some banana and peach and a grainy body; then a rather sweet finish. Lacking spice and depth of flavour.

Bottle from Lidl. Bugger all head despite my best efforts, hazy amber. Smell is wheaty, bready, light citrus. taste is dry and bitter, with bread and a touch of banana which follows through into a fairly airy aftertaste. It's not bad, but it is a bit thin and watery A little spiciness to it. There's a lot of potential in this but it seems less than the sum of it's parts.

Off white minimal head left a cover on a well carbonated light copper coloured body. Sweet fruity malt & berry aroma. Medium to thin, smooth - pretty inoffensive on the palate. Sweet floral tastes with tea, wheat, yeast, red berries, Parma violet sweets & a sweet herbal finish.

Keg half pint at the Granite City (JDW), Aberdeen Airport. 5.2% ABV. Nearly clear golden to orange colour, small white head. Aroma of banana, banana toffee and cloves. Slightly sweet flavour, with the same elements as the aroma. Too much banana, really.
