Bottle thanks to sisinlaw Sarah. Bright clear gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, light, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Smooth pale malts, a little sweeter, a very mild grain, kinda works here. Soft pine hops. The trio of US hops bring a light bright citrus. Airy and semi dry finish. Not bad, light and drinkable and just enough hops to make it interesting.

Bottle thanks to my sisinlaw. Cheers Sarah. Bright clear amber - gold beer, small bubbly cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, decent fine carbonation. Smooth pale malts, light malt cream, fair amount of caramel. Light cooling pine hops. Mild citrus peel with a brighter but milder underlay of fresher citrus. Some esters hanging about. Serviceable and fairly quaffable.

[Cask at The Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] An amber pour with a slight haze and a creamy white head; fruity Belgian yeast aroma with; smooth grainy body with a banana taste; then a lightly bitter finish with a touch of spice in the throat. A nice Belgian ale.

I spent a week of my life in Salcombe some years ago but didn't find this one there. A lower-strength than, but full Belgian style flavoured cask. Bubble-gum notes that linger in taste, slightly less stated in aroma.

Cask at the moon under water Watford Jdw. A clear orange amber coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is spicy orange, phenols, clove, grass, earthy grains. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, green liquorice, spicy, chamomile, numbing, light white peppercorns.. Palate is semi sweet, semi crisp, light delicate cask condition. Drinks pretty good.

Bottle on 6th December 2025, received as gift. Pours slightly hazy, active copper with shallow, diminishing yellowy white foam and spot lacing. Malty aroma. Sweet berries, leafy hops and maltiness in-mouth with notes of smoke. Fruity finish. Medium bodied with an engaging mouthfeel.
gave a cheers!

Cask at the Falcon (JDW), Wycombe. Amber with an off white head. Up front this is definitely Belgian in character; banana-ey yeast, a hint of honey roast ham, and a white bread and banana cake body. The finish is more British - a twiggy, earthy bitterness. Nice to have something a little bit different on cask.

Bottle on 9th November 2025, received as gift. Slightly hazy gold with shallowing off-white foam and scant lacing. Grassy hoppiness in aroma. Grassy and leafy hops in-mouth with rounded malts- a blend that goes on to dominate the finish. Full bodied with a zingy mouthfeel.
gave a cheers!

Pint on cask at the gate house jdw.
Thick creamy white head. Slightly hazy golden pour. Light bitterness. Tastes like a Belgian beer.
