Cask at the Crosse Keys, JDW. Clear yellow pour with a foamy, pure white head. Crispy straw aroma with some cereal malts. Light to medium sweet, lots of toasty grains and hay, some grassy bitterness with hints of earth and citrus. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes semi-dry, lightly sticky with some doughy, crispy malts and lingering grass and straw hops. Great, very drinkable stuff.

Cask handpull at Crosse Keys London. Clear gold colour with lasting thin white head. Floral hop aroma. Some rose petal flavour. Its a decent golden ale. Some lovely flral hops on the finish. I had a very tired palate by the time I got to this. Need to curl up on a sofa with a bucket of fried chicken. Need sleep. Decrnt beer though. Good condition and flavoursome hops
