Cask at the Royal Standard, Wooburn Common, 01/05/19. Clear golden blonde with a decent white head that dissipates to spotting and a swirl. Nose is lemon rind, citric tinged straw, airy malts, light breads. Taste comprises orange zest, light mineral bite, lemon rind, straw, toasted grains, light malt base. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying close with balanced bitterness. Decent quaffable gold.
