500ml Bottle - Golden in colour. Blackcurrant, honey and grain in the aroma. Malty taste with grain, lemon and a hint of blackcurrant. Just like with the Botanic Pale Ale, I was expecting more but it is still enjoyable enough for what it is.

Cask at Reading Beer Festival. Amber. Straw and toast. Dry. Got more boring the more I drank. But hey, it’s another of those rare Wight rates and makes my Ratebeer world a little bluer.
