Cask at the Pup & Duckling, Solihull. Poured a mostly clear golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is yeasty, light herbal. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a smooth, fresh, yeasty, herbal, light citrus, hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Ok, but very yeasty. Maybe it adds to the experience!
