Golden colour with no head. It's really bland and a bit stale. Not at all zesty. Tastes like old cardboard

Cask at Old Reine Deer, Banbury. Pours a slightly cloudy pale straw with a scummy white head. Has a vague aroma, mainly of caramel. Mainly malts in the mouth, together with biscuits, lemongrass and citrus hops. Finish is a slightly unpleasant general bitterness. I wasn’t too keen on this one.
