Cask at CBC Clerko, 24/11/16. Rich copper hues topped with a white cap. Nose is bitter orange, sweet malt, biscuit, perfumed notes. Taste comprises light bread, strong and slightly over whelming orange, biscuit, faint toffee. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Ok ... gets the orange message across but a little 1D and lacking balance.
