Cask handpull at Halfway House, Edinburgh. Gold, lasting beige head. It’s fine. Citrusy bitter with some tangerine. Good condition, decent hop on end and nice citrus flavours overall. Considering I had a whopping hangover, this was perfectly acceptable.

3 Judges. Aroma is caramel and hints of toffee malt but grassy hop dominated. Taste is more balanced caramalt with grassyness and hints of citrus at the end.
