Bottle from The Bay Hop, Colwyn Bay. Aroma has light citrus and malts. Clear gold. Fluffy foamy white head. Initial tart citrus and resin. This is followed by sweet sugary juice. Spice. Underlying malts are low key. Light. Thin. Lifted by soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Pleasant.

Cask @ Cromwell's Tap House. Pours a generally clear gold, white head. Lovely this, floral in character, wit-like aspirations.. distant bitter prickle with a gentle hoppy presence. Nice.
