Handpull cask at the Fossgate Tap, York. Light golden and clear with a full white head which leaves generous lacing. Light lemon aroma, hay, marmalade. Tastes a lot worse: one of those buttery goldens I thought we'd left behind us in 2016. Grainy and hay-y in the finish. Light body with fairly soft carbonation.
