This version of the beer is exclusively brewed in the UK for the J D Wetherspoon Real Ale Festival.

This is pale yellow in colour and slightly cloudy in appearance, with a beautifully perfumed, slightly piquant aroma. Its flavour is initially sweet, before developing a refreshing bitterness and fruitiness, resulting in a hoppy finish.

Cask handpull at Folkestone Spoons. Clear gold thin white head. Some Belgian peach ester. Ok very light Belgian blond. Ok but very lightweight.

Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell. Straw with a thin white head; floral aroma; soft and perfumed in the mouth with a grainy body and touch of sour cherries and almonds; before a dry finish. Pleasant, but nothing to make me go back for another.

Cask @ Leeds Station Wetherspoon, Leeds. Straw-yellow-blond with a small head. Has a small floral aroma, a very light sweetness throughout and a nice hoppy character edging towards pale ale territory but still distinctively European in design.
