Cask at PoW, Farnborough. Barman offered me a taster first - said they'd sold one pint in four days..... definitely a Golden Ale crowd in this pub. A murky opaque brown. Thin foamy beige head. Aroma has spice and berries. Flavourwise low key coffee and berries with more prominent but not particularly strong spice. Sweet with a sour edge. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Verging on creamy. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Boring but not overly spiced which would be more off-putting for me.
