Cask conditioned at the Gardeners Arms, Plantation Rd, Oxford 25-07-05. This was sampled very shortly after BeeZone and yet somewhat suprisngly I felt that this had more lucious honey type flavours than the aformentioned beer. I wouldn’t have described it as a wheat beer and felt that it had a very good clarity though I must add that the Gardeners Arms is a very small dark pub and so my eyes could have been tricked, it appeared a pale amber colour and had some sweet and wheatyness in the aroma perahps but it really was the taste that impressed and particularly as it was Banks I was even more suprised. Mixing it up with that lucious sweetness there was a pleasant citrusy tang that counteracted nicely, creating a very nice balance. This wasn’t particularly bitter, but all in all made an excellent session beer that I would happily search out again.
