Cask at GBBF ’15, day 1, 11/08/15. Lightly hazed orange golden topped with a decent off white swirl. Nose is light fart, citric pith, straw, trace of hops, a touch too much fart. Taste comprises bitter orange, straw, light spice, earthy hops. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Pretty mediocre for style, lacks hops and citric presence.
