Draught (Clwb Ifor Bach,Cardiff) - Golden in colour with some light grapefruit hints. Fruity taste with grapefruit and peach. More like a golden ale than a lager like it is intended to be like.

[on draught at The Turks, Reading] Initially malty, then dry dirty straw flavour; aftertaste bitter with slight sour fruits. A very average British bitter, indistinguishable from so many others I’ve tasted; with so many innovative beers in Britain, it’s a shame that there’s still dull, bland bitters like this dominating the real ale market.
