Bottle that I had at The Globe, Wells next the Sea, Norfolk 17-06-09 Poured amber/orange with white bubbly head and a chill haze. There is some yeast on the nose. This is a touch thin and watery initially but there is a prickly bitterness to it, some soft fruitiness maybe apricots? Not as sweet as was expecting, it’s fine but no great shakes. 6 A3 F6 P3 Ov12 3.0
