Cask at GBBF ’13, 13/08/13. Clear golden with a thin white head. Nose is toasted malts, grain, grass, orange, fruits. Taste comprises tangy fruits, light hops, orange, citrus. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, dry finish. Ok golden blonde ... clearly added before the invasion of the golden blondes - would not wash as a bitter in this day and age !
