Cask @ Cross Keys, Harpenden. Golden brown. Very lively with large lingering head. Faint aroma mainly of biscuit with some undefinable fruit. A hint of the sea oddly mixed in. Mild taste, sweet with fruit throughout; gentle finish. Aftertaste accentuates hops. Not an IPA of course, but a Classic English bitter. Wonโt knock your socks off but itโs still a decent drop.
