Cask at London North Western, Birmingham. Pours golden yellow with minimal off-white head. Not much of an aroma, just some vague lemony hints. In the mouth the immediate reaction is of how watery the texture is. It is sweet with hints of floral hops and citrus which gradually get stronger. Traces of melon and mango later leading to a slightly sticky finish. Not a bad beer just blandness personified.
