Cask @ Kings Head, Yoxford. Deeper golden with a frothy head. It seems to have a little more orange than elderflower in its taste, but there is a floral influence.

Cask at GBBF 2015. This Green Jack ale made with elderflowers pours a clear gold with a thick foamy head. The aroma is bready, lightly floral with citrus notes. Mes-full body and a creamy mouthfeel. The taste is creamed corn, bitter herbs and corn biscuits. Interesting. 3.4

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 12th September 2010. Gold and slightly hazy with a white head of foam. Refreshing and pleasant blend of elderflower, grass and citric hop notes, with a little malt rounding. Hoppy, fruity finish. Textured mouthfeel. Enjoyed this pint.
