Cask at the Wild Swan. It pours clear pale blond with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is freshly baked bread, biscuit, toasty grains, quite soft and orchard fruits The taste is crisp, dryish, smooth, fragrant, floral, toasty grains, grassy, snappy biscuit and a touch of soapiness. Light body and well appointed cask cask carbonation. A decent beer in great condition. Perhaps a touch forgettable though
