Cask at Peterborough beer festival 2022. Pours light hazed amber gold with a smidge of a beige cap. My experience was similar to the above - fruity yet tart & funky. Clearly an infection of some sort. Light to medium body with very light carbonation

Forholdvis pålitelige notater fra en travel dag på The Great British Beer Festival, London 02.08.22: lett uklar lys gylden, ok skum. Litt honning, lett krydret, litt citrus og noe såpeaktig. Svak, urteaktig bitterhet i avslutningen.
