Hazy deep amber beer, good cream colour head. Palate is airy and a little crisp. Sweetish malts, touch of spice. Light generic floral fruits - the Hibiscus I guess. Smooth caramel - cream. Light crisp finish. Not bad at all, certainly hides the abv very well.

750ml bottle. Clear, reddish brown colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Fruity, malty and yeasty spicy aroma, notes of red berries, caramel, chocolate, a touch of cinnamon, hoppy overtones with orange and mandarine notes. Taste delivers similar flavours, a dditionally a minimally peppery yeasty touch. Very nice.

Bottle split @# Arch, thanks to Kenwold, 19/06/15. Hazed amber topped with a decent beige covering. Nose is rich fruit, floral notes, caramel, straw, berries. Taste comprises fruit cake glob, dates, toffee, lighter floral element, sweet licks, red berry rasp. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok as this style goes, didn’t get to sweet.

Hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and crisp. Mild minerals. Light malts, thin creamy sweetness. Spice. Floralness. Elderflower? Yes but very well buried. Trace of banana ester. It’s clean but table beers generally leave me wanting more and this is no exception.
