Cask pint in a Wetherspoons in Bromley before a Grimsby Town game (we won 2-1). Slight haze to the golden pour, the head a full white/off-white cap. Tropical fruits in the citrus based aroma with some malty hints levelling out the nose esters. Taste was citrusy first with a malty background: would have preferred less citrus and more sweetness, but this almost balanced beer went down OK, plenty more to try before the game!
