chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Nov 3, 2007 Draught at GBBF, August 2006. Hey, this ain’t half bad. Nice bright gold colour. Light, dry malt aroma. Fruity and malty on the palate. Mainly biscuity but with just a hint of toffee. Soft, creamy mouthfeel but there’s enough firm grip to carry it through. Not too sweet and not too fizzy.
