Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden orange with an attractive white head. Nose - lemon peel, lemon curd, floral and caramel. Taste - creamy lemon, banana and caramel. Nutmeg at the back. Palate - light bodied, creamy texture. Dry finish with decent linger. Overall - quite liked this! Maybe because it's the first of the day, but enjoyable all the same.

Bottle from AlesByMail. Huge gusher. Almost half of the beer disappeared. Aroma and taste are wheat malt, hops and has a malty finish. Boring wheat beer

33cl bottle from Waitrose, Wokingham. A pale amber pour, with a loose, fast-fading white head; aroma of straw with a hint of citrus; sweet grainy body with some lemon and sour grains to finish. Clean and refreshing.
