Cask at Pigs Ear BF 2012, London. Pours clear gold with a white cream head - it looks good. Smokey nose, some pale malts. Lightly smokey flavor, tobacco, ash, light fruits. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Smokey finish, more tobacco. It’s oddly smokey, one of those light-colored beers with some unintentional smoke character. Not altogether bad, but...
