Tap@CBC2015, Yellow Session - pours orange with small white head. Sweet fruity and malty aroma and taste, with some well judged tart raspberry notes throughout, really liked this.

CBC Yellow Session. Keg. Very hazy amber beer, small pale apricot colour head. Palate is smooth and semi dry with good fine carbonation. Mildly tart rapberry turning tangy. Piney hops, not that strong. Light dry finish. A decent fruity IPA but perhaps more hops would lift it.
