Cask, Wirral Food & Drink Festival. Darkish, hazy golden colour with next to no head. Some vague citrus and hop lurking here, but something not quite right in the flavour, like an unpleasant almost stale sourness which spoilt this rather for me. Finishes dry and ok but on the whole not great at all.

[i] [b] Bottle, many thanks to Ian Harrisoni for this beer, cheers mate. [/i] [/b] Pours light golden with barely any head other than a tiny rim of white bubbles. Some preserved lemon noticed on the nose, there a few tiny yeast particles but nothing too worry about and they are all the bottom of the glass, in fact the beer has pretty good clarity. Nice soft lemony taste, this would be very refreshing if served straight from the fridge in the summer, but still it’s a very nice drop, quite tangy, some hops, it’s a subtle but nonetheless pretty impressive beer.
