Bottled. A dark golden beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt, spices, fresh fruits, and hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, spices, and some fruit, leading to a dry and spicy finish - elderflowers.

[Bottle conditioned, Dad shared with me - cheers!] Gold-amber, slight white head, very heavy sedimentation might put some off. Appears very fizzy in the glass, but in the mouth carbonation is spot on. Aroma of flowers and citrus; in the mouth it’s bursting with juicy fruits; orange, peach and sweet pink grapefruit. Refreshing yet at the same time rich and satisfying. Lovely beer.
