(Cask at Rake, Borough, London, 31 May 2025) Pale amber colour with frothy, tan head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of apricots, caramel and toast. Malty taste with caramel, apricots, toast, bread and a mild earthy bitterness in the finish. Light body, with a slight sweetness. Refreshing bitter. Quite nice.
