On cask at the Wateredge. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - very elusive just pale malt. Taste - more malt than citrus and there is malt astringency. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture but an astringent finish. Overall - sadly this was the least inspiring beer of the 5 this lunchtime which doesn’t really fall in line with the general ratings. So I’ll try it again next time I see it.
