Cask handpull at Queen Vic. It pours golden - blonde with a small frothy head. The aroma is. The taste is fresh, fragrant, floral, orange blossom, tangerine, kumquat, splash of orange, tango, biscuit, bread, earthiness, . The taste is fairly dry with some bitterness upfront, touch green, grassy, floral, pine needles, pithy, zesty, orange peel, grapefruit, tangerine and some peppery spice with a drying, bitter linger. Light to medium body and light carbonation. Condition is a touch lacking perhaps, so this doesn't quite sing. Decent enough, but not up to the usual heights of Fyne cask ale.
