maeib (6618) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - AUG 15, 2006
Cask conditioned - handpump - Criterion Leicester. A golden beer with a white bubbly head. The aroma has good hop levels. These are citric with a sharpness akin to JHB. The taste is nicely hoppy, with lemon notes and a good bitterness. Add the extra chunk of alcohol and it becomes a really good beer.

Handpulled at Babington (JDW) Derby. Clear lemon gold body, thick creamy head. Uncomplicated citirc aroma, lemon with a hint of lime. Smooth, never cloying. Keeps a sherbert sweetness on the roof of your mouth. Well crafted.
