Keg at the CP&K, 18/07/16. Clear golden amber with a well appointed off white head. Nose is toasted grain, sweet malts, honey suckle, caramel, light fruit esters. Taste comprises more sweet malts, fruit loaf, honey drizzle, peach, straw, light yeast tickle, soft bread. Medium + body, fine carbonation, light booze trace in the close. Not bad for style, honey evident, sweet licks but balanced enough for me in this respect.
