Keg at The Old Fountain. It pours crystal-clear golden amber with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, white bread, cracker, doughy, sweetness, grass, sweat and leaves. The taste is crisp, dry, white bread, grass, straw, pithy, peppery spice, lemongrass, soda water and minerals with a dry finish. Light - medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Decent for what it is.
