Cask at chapel book shop, Broadstairs, 21/06/21. Clear golden decent white head retains well. Nose is airy crisp malt, biscuit, grass, lemon tinged straw. Taste comprises, light citric zest, crackers, grains, biscuit malt, light astringent bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with a mellow level of bitterness. Far from any APA that I know but a decent enough cask golde meets bitter.

GBBF Day 1. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light grainy malts. Mild floral bitterness. Little citric peel bitterness. Light dry finish. Crushingly stupifyingly average. A beer like many thousands of others. Well done!
