Brown 500ml bottle, best before 31 Dec 2011, poured into a UK pint sleeve on 27 Jun 2011.

Crystal and Halcyon malts with local honey give the beer a true golden hue. On top an off-white foaming head sits proudly.

Challenger, WGV and Cascade hops give the beer a hoppy aroma, mini spice esters from them also, no honey smells though.

Tangy and crisp, mildly sweet, but those aforementioned hops ensure there is a hop bite from the start and a bitterness as the mouth dries. The hops were not just for the aromas they provide, that is obvious in the flavours as you savour this fine brew.

Could have had more depth of body, but it is supposed to be a fairly light summer beer, so i can forgive them for that. Overall, an easy beer to drink and on cask I suspect a delight.
