330ml can from Beer52. Hazy gold with small white foam but good retention. Aroma of moderate toasted malts, mid-sweetness, light hedgerow fruit and herbs. Flavour has the same notes but more intensity than expected from the aroma. Nice balance between the sweet malt and herbal bitterness with a bit of fruitiness to give it some softness. Medium bodied, somewhat of a pillowy mouthfeel, nice zing to the carbonation without being overdone. One of the better festbiers I've tried.
