Cask handpull at The Masque Haunt, JDW, London. Very pale gold, lasting white head. Served a bit cold, but in excellent nick, touch of soap, over a nettley, lime juice golden beer. Good citrus lime edge on the finish. Very good in fact. A JHB/Hophead/Brewers Gold wannabe, but more almost more extreme citric acid. Good though, nice fullness and sherbert creaminess, really explosive in mouth.
