Cask at GBBF 2006. A yellow beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of honey, and the flavor is sweet malty with a sticky honey end.

(Cask at GBBF, London, 4 Aug) Colour is golden yellow with green tinges, almost no head. Nose is fruity with lemon and lime. Taste is fruity with notes of lemon and a balanced finish with notes of grassy hops. Well made and refreshing, but a bit on the thin side and not really exciting.
