Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms JDW, Bristol. Hazy gold in colour with a decent white head. Caramel, spice and yeast aroma. Flavour was sweet, with some graininess in the mouth, toffee and citrus hops, leading to a short, dry finish. Good.

(50 cl bottle at Haket, Göteborg) On November 28, 2008. BB 28 Nov 08 (about time then :D) Hazy golden color, big white head. Fruity, smooth, sweet, floral scent. Bitter, a bit sweet, mostly dry, herval taste. Smooth mouthfeel. Medium low bitterness. Says on the bottle it’s a wheat beer, guess it’s wheat malt in it, no wheat yeast characteristics at all though.

[cask handpull at Monk’s Retreat, Reading] Pale gold, slight carbonation, slight white head. Tastes mainly of straw dust, with a slight dirty bitterness. Some banana sweetness comes through. Leaves a slightly greasy mouthfeel. OK but rather forgettable. c3
