This amber coloured ale is infused with local honey. Refreshing hop bitterness lingers on the palate, leaving a slight honey and vanilla sweetness on the lips.

Fra cask på GBBF aug-19: nesten helt klar gylden med fint skum som varer. Gress urter, sommerblomster og et lite streif av lynghoning. Waterish. Fairly good but not totally convincing.

Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 2/8/2016. Deep gold in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. Sweet, floral, hops, biscuity malts, yeasty stone fruits, and a moderately bitter finish. So so.

Bottle. Ridiculous head. Lively conditioning. Some nectar and strained yeast aromas. A tad sulfuric. Old. Camembert. In a bad way Bad bottle

Bottle shared with AshtonMcCobb. Get to Norfolk Tasting. Pours hazy gold with a big white head. Another near-gusher, high carbonation. Aromas of sherbet and little else. Possible infected? Yeast issues anyway. Taste is more sherbet. Poor.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden to slightly amber with a fluffy white head. Nose - honey, spice and a wild yeast thing. Taste - lemon, honey and wild yeast, sherbet. Palate - light to medium bodied with a tangy yeast thing that is dominating everything. Overall - might be a wild yeast problem here.

Bottled. A golden beer with a huge off-white head. The aroma has notes of spices and elderflowers. The flavor is sweet with light notes of malt and spices - ginger, cloves, and elderflowers, leading to a dry bitter finish. The body is light. Thanks fonefan for sharing.

Bottle, thx to fonefan. It pours a big, foamy off-white head over a hazy, orange body. Chalky, dusty and citrusy nose with some pale malt. Far from as bad as expected. Citrusy, dusty and slightly sour flavor with a flowery touch and some bitterness. Quite bitter finish with citrus and pinecones. Medium body. A refreshing and quenching beer, pity it has the sour touch. (080822)

50 cL bottle. Pours unclear orange with a slowly collapsing white head. Orange fruity and mild brett-ish dry aroma. Citric and orange fruity hops flavour with a distinct brett dryness and citric touch. Mild herbal touch into the finish.
