York Beer Festival 2023. Darker hazy golden in appearance. In terms of texture it doesn't feel its strength, but has a fuller hoppy-fruity taste with a bitterness.

Cask at Shrewsbury Arms, Stafford. Pours a hazy pale straw with minimal white head and good lacing. The aroma is a bit wishy-washy – some vague citrus and lemon. In the mouth it starts off sweet with citrus and lemongrass before morphing into bitterness with cereal grains. The citrus returns with a vengeance in the finish though. A decent IPA (until the finish) – I’d place it somewhere between a traditional English style and a West Coast.
