Cask at the Castle Inn, Cambridge. Copper coloured pour with a thin bubbly white head. Malty aroma leading to a nice balanced malty bitter taste which had ever so slightly metallic notes. A classic English bitter. I like it, but many wont as they are looking for non-session beers, hence the occasional low rating.
