23/2/2019. Cask at the Great British Winter Beer Festival 2019, Norwich. Pours clear dark gold with a small bubbly off-white head. Aroma of potato starch, vegetable and sweet malt. Medium plus sweetness, light to moderate bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, soft carbonation. Looked really good, but otherwise not disappointing.
