Cask at The Queen Vic, Aberdeen. It pours amber with an orangey hue and handsome white head. The aroma is bready, digestive biscuits, sappy, floral, tangy citrus and lemon curd. The taste is firm and dry upfront, biscuity malt base, sappy, resin, pithy, zesty, grapefruit rind, touch of rawness and tannin with a dry, bitter linger. Average body and nice carbonation for cask. Hearty malt base with a really nice hit of bitterness and hops. Haven't had a cask ale like this in some time, i.e. a Trad English cask take on an APA. Works well.
