Bottle from ?Jacks?, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon. Consumed at home Monday 26th August 2013 Pours hazy orangey/gold, nice white head atop. Feels soft in mouth but the tongue is carressed by a fruity hoppiness which is sweet, pleasantly bitter with some squidgy sweet lemon. Really nice beer and a surprise for me as for some reason I opened it up and never expected it to be so good. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8

Gravity dispense at EBF XV, 08/08/13. Hazed golden with a very thin white head that clears to edgeing. Nose is full on elderflower , light coffee (wasn’t expecting that!), bitter fruits, herbal notes. Taste comprises bitter floral hops, spicey tones, fruits, elderflower. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, dry finish with foral notes. Well executed in terms of delivering what it said on the tin, plesant enough but something in small doses for a hot day perhaps!
