Cask at Weymouth Oktoberfest. Aroma is tangy and grainy - a lorra fruit. . Opaque-hazy amber. Frothy foamy white head doesn't quite deliver 100% coverage. Medium bitter. Tart citrus. Underlying malts. Medium bodied. Slick buy also seems to have much sediments. Long dry astringent finish. Not keen on this.
