Cask at GBBF 2015. It pours clear light gold with a small white head. The nose is soft, sweet, spicy, oily, brioche, nectarine and peach pie. The taste is bitter, oily, orange rind, pine, resin, bread, alcohol boost, mango and papaya with a smooth, bitter finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Simple enough, but pretty enjoyable.
