Gravity cask at Olde England, Northampton. This beer isn’t straw as per the description, but rather mid- to dark gold with a small layer of loose white head. Some papaya, mango and soft malt on the nose. Slight sour note. Full fruity sweet taste held back by a well-judged hop bitterness. More papaya at the end. Thin to medium body. Nice.
