First day at the Great British Beer Festival 2013, cask, one-third pint glass. Bubbly white head to a dark golden body, slightly cloudy. Fresh aroma of peach and apricot. Fruit hoppy taste with a faint touch wheat. Dry, bittersweet ending. Oily palate. Likable, a strange kind of wheat beer though. (London Olympia 13.08.2013).
