Note: the only Pen Druid beer available at the festival, as their beers got stuck in customs.
Very cloudy orange beer, no head. Aroma: very fruity, orange peel, nice funky touch, brett, lovely complexity. MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: bit sweetish, very fruity, citrus, lychee, pineapple, lemon and lime juice, soft bitterness, some grapefruit, tannins. Aftertaste: little acidic, bitter, minty, more tannins. Nice one!
