Cask at the Devonshire Arms. Mid-gold,exceedingly clear. Quite a lot of carbonation at first but this seems to dissipate quickly. Almost no head. Grain and butterscotch dominate the aroma. The taste isn’t much improved: a sweet/savoury, buttery mess. Like eating one of those Japanese baked-potato candies. Worst Milton beer I’ve had by a country mile.
