Cask, handpump at The Green Man & Blacks Head Hotel/Pub, Ashbourne, Derbyshire 18.09.10 A World Cup inspired beer that somehow seems to still be doing the rounds. Loz and my dad liked this better than the BHB Titan, I on the other hand preferred the latter. Pours crystal clear orange/amber Aroma is a touch sweet, bit of soft malt, bitterness is there but not too much, some light fruitiness, slight tanginess, nice enough. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5
