From the cask at the Real Ale Regatta. Poured a slightly hazy amber orange with a white head that dissipated to the edges and laced nicely. Aroma was a nice combination of citrus, light pine, maple and a hint of sweet smokiness all backed by some sweet grains. Flavor was similarly complex with less citrus but the same surprisingly nice maple and smoke combination backed by some light pine and grain. This one surprised me!
