Cask @ New Oxford, Salford. Golden session textured hoppy ale. It's a steady brew in this respect.

Bottle from a colleague. Earthy malty aroma with some underlying citrus. Pale brown tinged gold. Frothy translucent white head. Medium bitter. Develops a sour edge. Light bodied. Thin. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. As it states on the bottle it's a hoppy gold. No complaints about that.
