Cask @ Crosse Keys ’Sporks, Gracechurch St. Gold with no head. Fruity hops, slight nettles, pear, juicyfruit gum and malt in the aroma. Can nearly detect a faint whiff of diacetol but but the fruit character saves it. Flavour is tropical fruits, malt and a nice juicy hop bite. I found it quite well balanced and pleasant.

Handpulled cask at the Crosse Keys(JDW), Monument, London during their recent international beer fest. Pale gold with a fine unsparkled white head and loads of lively condition. Rich malt to start with a citrussy hop finish. Very drinkable.
