Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Gluten Free. Golden colour, white bubbly foam head and aroma of malt, grain, straw. Taste is malty, grainy, biscuit, straw, with tangy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying bitter finish. Quite OK.

3/3/2023. Cask at the 46th Loughborough Beer Festival. Pours clear dark golden with a bubbly/frothy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, orange, malt, veg, sweaty edge. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness. Moderate body, average carbonation. Nice bittersweet finish. Tasted better than its aroma.
