Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat. [20110430]

On cask at Euston Tap. On the board as Amber Sterling Blonde 4%. Clear gold thin white head. Its a reasonable golden ale with a touch of biscuit to the malt. Its just a touch empty on the swallow but very refreshing. Ok

Cask at the Euston Tap, London. Pours clear, light gold with a faint head. Some wet hay and doughy malts on the nose. Light sweet flavor, corn, straw, hay, that kind of thing. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Mild sweet finish, faintly dry, bit more straw. Not bad.
