Cask at the Wellington Arms, Bedford. Medium brown, small white head. Cola, plums and birch beer in the aroma. Smooth fruity taste. The bitter hop note keeps the intensity of the sweetness at bay. Slight increase in bitterness for the finish, although I’d still prefer more balance. Fairly weak body.
