Cask @ The Talbot Hotel, Burnley. Golden with a very thin head. Has an acute malty nose and fairly malty taste thatโs more balanced with hops. Itโs here thereโs more of a floralness that lingers a while in the palate. Medium bitterness.

Slightly hazy, golden body. Orange fruity to the nose. Fruity taste profile with tangerine and peaches. Bitterness of satisfying length to the finish. An extra score for the name [Half pint at Halfway house, Edinburgh 12.11.2008].
