Bottle from Old Shambles Tavern in York. Appearance - golden with a nice fluffy head. Nose - lemon followed in by cardboard and a musty malt thing. Taste - more lemon and malt. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish. Overall - a bit like drinking a liquid version of a malt bag. A bit bland.
