Cask at Hops, Crewe. Pours golden yellow with a sizeable white head and good lacing. The aroma is mainly sweet malts with some hints of citrus. In the mouth it is bittersweet with a creamy texture, and a mix of traditional and floral hops. Plus corn, grains and traces of citrus and spice. Bitterness increases in the slightly dry finish. This is decent.
