Cask at the White Lady. Pours clear golden yellow with a decent white head. Subtle malt aromas, some light citrus hop notes. Taste is largely sweet. OK.

On tap @ the Haymarket. Pours golden with a decent head. The nose is a little bit muted with mostly a bran note. The taste is more like wholemeal biscuits. The palate is medium bodied through out but there’s no real refreshment on the end. Overall, not worh a revisit.
