Can I reckon. Hazy golden body, white head. Huh, sadly, this was a bit oxidized, caramelly maltiness was the only thing in the aroma. Sweetish malty taste, with some very light orangey hops. Okay. To be rerated fresh at some point.

A light amber beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, tropical fruits, and hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, malt, tropical fruits, and caramel, leading to a bitter finish.

Cask at the Wellington Arms, Bedford. Dark gold with a small to medium white head. The bouquet is light, and centres on malt, white grape and tropical fruit. Sweet juicy taste, with a bitter turn waiting in the background. More grape and papaya in the finish. Full palate, very nice carbonation. Lovely.
