Can from Inn At Home, Guildford. Weak floral caramel aroma, I guess. Hazy gold. Whacking great frothy white head. Light bitter. Sour edge. Malt base. Light-medium bodied. Thin. Light carbonation. Low key dry finish. Nothing to write home about. It’s OK but not much going on. Bore beer.

Cask at Ealing Beer Festival 2017, Ealing, London. A golden/amber coloured pour with a thin white head on top. Vague hoppy, citrus aroma. Tastes vaguely hoppy, fruity with a strange taste I cannot explain, almost like plastic. Really disappointing.
