Brewed traditionally with Challenger and Fuggles wholeleaf hops, Maris Otter and Crystal malts and a trace of coriander. It is the first bottled ale of its type and is truly a class apart. It is very smooth and refreshing on the palate. Accompanies all tasty food, particularly curries, Chinese and Thai dishes.

Bottle. Golden beer with a strongish head. The aroma is very sweet and fruity and the flavour is quite dry, rhubarb and well hopped and bitter. Overall a nice fruity beer.

500ml bottle from Cheriton Tesco. Orange/gold colour with thin off white head. Spice, hop, citrus aromas. Hops are green and fresh. Bit of tangerine. OK in mouth with zingy hoppy finish with more tangerine/orange. Nice enough beer.

Light, very refreshing. There is a lot of coriander in this beer, which works well for me. Why they chose to release this in the winter I'll never know - this is midsummer quaffing all the way.
