3rd May 2019; hand-pulled half-pint at the 46th Telford Drinks Festival at The Crown Inn, Oakengates. Clear light golden body, white head. The festival seemed to have more golden, citrus flavoured beers than anything else; this was one of the better ones. I am still bored with them though! Scored objectively.

Aroma of citrus, white wine, olive oil, grapefruit, melon and seed husk, with a little biscuit. Medium sweetness with light bitterness. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. A quite unusual and pretty decent, very drinkable.
