Cask at the brewpub. It pours clear golden-amber with a small white head. The nose citrussy, cereal, honey, grain, oat and leather. The taste is bitter, wood, cereal, leather, cereal, leaf, grass and grain with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body, soft carbonation and slightly oily mouth-feel. Alright for a cask IPA, but didn’t blow me away. Alright.
