Aroma of hops, fruit, flowers, malt, touch of tropical fruits, and pine. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Fruity finish. For me, the best we shared from this brewery today.

Bottle from Beer Ambleside. Appearance - golden with attractive lacing. Nose - grains with some dried fruit. Some lemon too. Taste - same again with the muesli type notes. Palate - light bodied, creamy and with soft but balanced bitterness. Overall - pretty decent. Perhaps more like an old style English Pale Ale.

Bottle from Ambleside Wines, Ambleside. Golden with a head. It has a decent pale ale aroma, but fails to follow through in taste with just a bland hoppiness available.
