Originally brewed for Peterborough Beer Festival 2007.
This strong ale has a complex nose packed with floral notes, marmalade and apricot. Spicy overtones on the palate with a hint of sweetness lead to a lasting bitter finish.

Cask at The Ealing Beer Festival 2023, Ealing, London. A slightly hazy golden coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, orange, tropical fruit taste and aroma. A rather average Oakham beer.

Cask gravity at Planet Thanet BF 08. Oakham’s is pretty much my favourite brewery in the country, so I was really looking forward to this. Which is why I was surprised that I gave it a lowish score. Even trying it the next day, I wasn’t won over. Hazy pale gold colour with bubbly beige head. Very nettley and ascetic hoppy blond beer. It’s got a bit of harshly citric nettle flavour which I wasn’t too keen on. Bit soapy too. Must be just about my lowest scored Oakham beer I think.
