(Cask at Cask Pub & Kitchen, Pimlico, London 23 April 2017) Golden amber colour with foamy, white head. Malty, fruity nose with apricots, orange and some caramel. Malty, fruity taste with notes of apricots, toast, citrus and a balanced earthy bitterness. Light body, with a slight sweetness. Tasty and well balanced. Quite nice.
