Cask (White Hart Hotel,Whitchurch) - Golden in colour. Light citrus aroma with some malt notes. Moderately bitter initially, the taste then becomes more hoppy with grapefruit notes featuring. Refreshing.

[Cask at GBBF, 2004] An orange beer with no head. The aroma is very light - what is there is hoppy. The flavor is wheaty and hoppy with a dry end.
