Cask half-pint, hand pulled in The Bridge End Inn, Ruabon, Wales on 22nd Sep 2015. I have struggled with Weetwood beers in the past, often blaming the yeast they use, which I have felt to be overpowering at times: this beer however was fine and I enjoyed it from start to finish. Good amber body, off-white head. Biscuit malts in the nose, slight hop fruitiness too, the taste more bitter with the hops showing more, the malts retreating somewhat. Nice blend.
