Cask at Crown Hotel, Nantwich. Pours a pale straw with a small almost white head and good lacing. There’s corn and citrus in the aroma plus some traces of hops. In the mouth it is quite sweet, but with a little underlying sharpness. Flavour is citrus, floral hops and lemon plus some hints of mango. Citrus remains in the slightly dry finish. This is reasonable, but not exactly exciting.
