Handpull cask from VATS Bar, Brewery Arts Centre, Kendal. Tawny brown, clear with a smooth white head. Wood shavings and light lime peel on the nose, with a light metallic tinge. Sweetish taste with an almost funky woody flavour. Short dry finish with a slightly floral yet medicinal aftertaste. A simple little bitter that does the trick.
