Cask at GBBF 2007. A slightly hazy golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of elderberries as well as lighter notes of smoke and rope. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of elderberries and smoke, nice carbonation level.

Yellow with a white head. Floral aroma that seems slightly rotten. Sweet and boring flavour. It’s hard to make a good elderflower beer...

Cask@GBBF2007. Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is big time apricot along with sour wood and very fruity notes. Flavour is very much the same, but the dominating apricots are really glueish.

Cask gravity at GBBF 2007. Gold, bubbly off white head. Decent elderflower aroma. Really attractive in mouth, maybe a little too cabbagey, lots of vegetables on finish and more elderflower. Lacks a little condition, but for a 3.5% beer, plenty of taste. A little carbolic even.
