Hand pulled pint at the Wrekin Inn on 16th November 2025, Bertie was with me (the pump clip has a dog going out for a walk). Mini haze in the light golden brew, soft white head, a bit thin and wispy. Citrus leanings in the nose and taste, all a bit subtle and understated, pleasant enough, but lacks depth body and taste wise.
