Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Dark gold, mostly clear with a small foamy layer of white head and lots of lacing. Light grainy aroma, not getting a lot of the promised tropical fruit. Taste is improved, with a bitter citrus character. Strong hop bitterness in the finish. It's fairly average unfortunately.
