A strong floral nose and refreshing taste has made this a very popular pint. A single hop variety is enhanced with elderflower and pale malts to great effect.

(Bottle) Hazy golden beer, quite lively with a frothy head. Aroma is light and citrusy. The initial flavour is light and floral but it’s followed up with a sharp, citrus-hop flavour and a dry, fruity finish. Not the best of it’s kind you’ll try but it’s very nice all the same.

Cask @ Golden Rule, Edinburgh. Light straw - dense white head - nose of floral hops - soft floral hops and herbal notes over a pale malt base - bit of an odd flavour - fairly oily mouthfeel - dab of cereal comes through in the bitter finish which is dry and a little harsh - it’s ok overall

Aroma: Sharp and lemony. Light honey aroma.
Appearance: Light amber body with bits of sediment is floating around. Thin white head. No visible carbonation. Good lacing.
Taste: Biting citrus - elderflower, lemons and an interesting sherbet taste. A little soapy. Refreshing, but not very complex.
Palate: Thin texture. Light body. Almost completely flat carbonation. Dry finish.
Overall: A simple, easy-drinking beer. A good summer drink.

Bottle from Deeside Drink Emporium, Banchory. It pours cloudy golden yellow, with a thick white head. The nose is big floral, particularly elderflower, honey sweetness and tangerine. The taste is soft citrus, orange, tangerine and floral, with a dry finish. Light body and soft carbonation. Smooth, light and easy drinking. Decent.
