Cask - The Duke of Wellington, Norwich. Golden orange body with a small, white head. Dry hoppy hay and sweet fruity malt aromas. Fruity flavour profile, a bit tangy and lemony, some grassiness with a slight dry earthiness and malty balance. Light and summery, acidity in the finish.

Cask-conditioned at the Bon Accord, Glasgow 1/07/09. Deep golden with a moderate, off-white head. Slightly malty aroma with some summer fruit and hay. Flavour began with some sweet malts, before citrus hops took over leading to a middling bitter finish. Ok.
