Pours amber with a small head.Nose shows light wheat with plenty of sweet malt and some lemony hops.Flavours are pretty much the same but the malt is dominating, not enough wheat.Much too much carbonation.

From a 330ml bottle on 15/5/2010. Has a really pleasant banana aroma, with a touch of vanilla. However, when it hits the mouth, it’s a little disappointing. It has quite a bit of sweetness, with some prototypical wheat beer characteristics, but there is almost no bitterness to be found, and the carbonation is a little strong.

Bottle, 12C. Amber, an inch of pale beige head. Medium to high bead. Mild caramel malt and earth aroma. Malty taste with some fruit and firm bitterness. The bitterness has some citrus, grass and spice. A bit too clean and a bit too bubbly but quite nice.

Dark amber color. Apricots and raisins dominate nose. Solid malty backbone with apricots and cracked wheat adding significant depth. Malt focused. Moderately bitter finish. Excellent take on the style.

Small head shows little persistence. Slightly hazy amber/pale copper.Aroma is quite an eclectic mix of hops - sharp green grassy and spicy notes, grapefruit, orange blossom. A hint of clean malt underneath.Very English flavours, lots of clean slightly sweet malt with a significant green hoppy taste and pronounced bitterness, finishing quite dry.A bit too much carbonation.

On tap at brewery. This is a very, very smooth sipper. Orangey read in colour. Feels lovely on the tongue. very low carbonation, but with fizzy aftertaste.

On tap at brewery. This is a highly complex dubbel with dense dark appearance. leans towards the sweet end of the specturm, but with a tart after-taste. Look forward to this being put in bottles (it’s a long drive out to the brewery).

Bottled. Beautfully pitch black with rich, firm head. Creamy coffee aroma. Medium dry and very roasty. There’s lots of coffee, and the mouthfeel is extremely creamy. A balanced hop aromatic finish. It might be somewhat one-dimensional, but with such lovely flavour and mouthfeel it’s a joy to drink it.

Bottled. Cloudy pale orange, some sediment, small head. Tangerine aroma. Dry and hoppy with clean, crisp mouthfeel and notes of yeast. Surprisingly low bitterness.
