Hazy deep blond color; thin creamy head. The aroma is light, perfumy, flowery (very light elderflowers). Dry toffee flavor, quite strong bitterness, but nothing special.

[Cask at the Monks Retreat (JDW), Reading.] Amber with a thin cream head; spicy hop aroma; creamy mouthfeel, with some chewy malts; gently bitter and slightly spicy to finish. Pleasant but unexciting.
