Can at home in Hackney - picked up at the London taproom. Pours mostly clear amber-gold with a creamy, off-white head. Well delivered bitter, some toasted grains, leaves, a bit of citrus peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with more toasted bread and grains, mellow leafy bitterness, citrusy accents, grass, dried berries. No complaints here.
