Cask, half-pint, shared with Finn attending Beeriodical at Seven Stars. Patchy white surface leaving crocheted lacing down the glass. Apricot coloured body, near clear. Bread-like aroma, some dried fruits. Mixed taste of fruity bread and earthy malts. Smooth, dry fruity end. Satisfying. (Bristol 01.05.2017).
