Cask @ The Grove, Huddersfield. Golden with a frothy head. Is herbal tasting to an extent, with a medicinal berry-fruit taste, and a berry-fruitiness in its nose.

Golden beer with solid thin head. Zero carbonation. Floral, fruity, chalky nose. Spider web lacing. Thin body, easy-drinking. Zingy at first with bitter vegetal finish. Not very American, not much of an IPA.
