Cask @ The Pub, Hebden Bridge (formerly Calans). Hazy lighter golden coloured with a head. Has a deeper tasting tropical fruitiness and plenty of associated aroma too.

Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. It is light to mid-golden with a very thin off-white head. Some soft citrus peel in the aroma. Taste is mostly sweet with light grassy hip notes. Long balanced finish with more citrus peel in the aftertaste. Not an especially exciting beer, but certainly a well-made one. Worth trying.
