Cask at Bird In Hand, Stafford. Pours a pale gold with a small off-white head. There’s malts and biscuits in the aroma. In the mouth it is sweet and creamy, but also has a distinct tang to it. Flavour is initially corn and melon but some bitterness and hints of malts come through later. Even later there are some floral hops leading to a slightly dry finish. This is a decent pale ale.
