Cask, Far From The Madding Crowd. Pale gold, white head. Raw milkweed vegetable aroma, freezer burned hops. Minty hop forward flavor, something stale and disappointing about this. Worth a re-rate, since it looks like rating from a different cask seem to show a better beer that what is going on here.
