Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Gold, lasting beige head. Golden bitter with good hop finish. It’s a bit plasticky/artificial, citrus is almost forced into it. Good condition, mouthfeel is good. Everyone now makes one, a summer citrus blond/gold beer. This one is fine, but below average.
