On cask at the Shoulder of Mutton, Bradwell. Appearance - hazy golden with a decent head. Nose - lightly floral and some citrus. Taste - more citrus though dominated by malt. Palate - light bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - refreshing if unexciting.

Hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and good fine minerally carbonation. Light malts, pretty thin and mildly sweet. Spicy floral hop kick. Light orange peel and a trace of pith. Mild bitter linger. Not a bad IPA but the malt base is pretty thin.
