Handpull cask at the Kingston Arms, Cambridge. Light yellow, indeed almost straw. Very clear and with a tiny assembly of head-impersonating bubbles. Aroma is intensely floral/botanical: gardenia, kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass. Slight soapy tinge. Gentle taste, mild citrus hops. Very thin and oily body but it fits the beer. Lingering lime in the aftertaste. This sort of thing isn’t usually my cup of tea but I’ve enjoyed every sip today.
