Cask, half pint at Crosse Keys (JDW), shared with Finn. Bubbly, off-white head. Clear golden-brown body. Modest aroma of fruit caramel. Restrained flavour of caramel and leafy hops. Bittersweet endnotes. Okay, rather tasteless though (London 30.11.2015).

Golden blonde, clear, thin white head, soft lacing
Aroma of slight minerals, almost nothing
Taste of pale malts, soft bitter hops, light minerals, rather non deScript
Palate - Medium light body, soft bitter, quite refreshing. Finish is a bit dry, soft bitter.
Overall - Forgettable Spoons fare.

Cask@Crosse Keys JDW, London - golden pour with white head. Toasty malty and very subdued citrus fruity aroma and taste, some twiggy herbal and grassy hoppy action, abit bland all be told. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
