Cask @ Wetherspoon’s Piccadilly, Manchester. Dark mahogany coloured with a thin head. Slightly sweetened mild with a few roasted malts evident too in both aroma and taste. It has a bit of a strength as well.

30th Sep 2015: two hand-pulled cask pints in my local Wetherspoons. Clear amber/light brown body, an off-white topping stayed around for the whole pint each time. Fruity and malty with a hop backbone that kept in the shadows throughout, semi-sweet really with a mixed bag of fruity aromas and flavours.

Light-medium sweet with lightly toasted bread, ripening citrus fruits, hay. Light bodied with fine carbonation; pretty good condition. Finishes with some citrus fruits, moist hay, grains, faint lemony tang. So so.
