Judge 1touch of straw, some ripe developed honeysuckle aromas, mandarin cream texture
Judge 2bitter and sour - lots of granny smith apple peel - too austere
Judge 3buttery lime curd, intense fruit, nice weight, long finish, phenolics carrying limey fruit nicely - bitter almond adds complexity
Associate JudgeRipe, mellow, peach skin and malt. Great flavours, intensity, nice bite, savoury finish. Malty finish just knocks it down.
