(cask@Ravensbourne Arms, SE London) Pours a nice gold with a good off white head and good lacing. Aromas are malt biscuit caramel and citrus. Taste pleasant but not overpowering hop character (citrus lemon/orange in there) mix with biscuit malt. My first Dancing Duck offering and a good first impression.

Cask at WJ Kavanugh’s, Dublin. Hazy amber. Caramelly nose with some citrus. Light-medium bodied with rounded mouthfeel. I get more caramel, than hops and it turns somewhat sticky. Low bitterness.
