Handpull cask at the Tobie Norris, Stamford. Light gold, clear, with little head or lacing. Lemon, grapefruit and vanilla pod aroma, with a slight astringency. Sweet with a floral vanilla note, with more bitter citrus on the end of the sip. Bitter hops and botanicals on the finish. Different than most goldens, and all the better for it.

Bottle from My Favourite Beer, Cheltenham, Glos, Sat 11th Feb’ on the Cheltenham Folk Festival weekend Pours light yellow with some haze and also a little sediment in the bottom, white head atop. Crisp and citrussy, light touches, but with a dryness and bitterness that ensure that this 4% beer (the bottled version is 4%) has enough to keep one interested. Th finish is quite long and bitter but a citrus flourish keeps coming through. Good stuff. A7 A3 T7 P4 Ov15 3.6
