Cask at Bankers Draft (JDW), Bedford. Ruby/copper. Almost clear. Off-white head, fairly tight. Curtains of lacing. Light bready/malty/earthy smell with metallic and vinegar tinges. Nicely balaned bitter taste with some dry sourness on the finish. A nice enough concept but there isn’t a whole lot of flavour.
