Cask at Cambridge Blue, Cambridge. Gold with a white head. Barman said, while making a hash of pulling the pint, ’This is my first day. This is so not me.’ I had to agree with him. Hairy malt aroma with hints of chocolate and underarm. Complicated taste with malt, grass and nettles. Sharp bitter finish. Served a little warm. Didn’t much like it, to tell the truth.

Pleasant flowery hop nose with low hints of citrus grapefruit, gentle sweet malt and hop resins. Quite thin and slightly yeasty in the mouth with some solid hop bitterness emerging along with a faint nutty maltiness. Finish is dry and hop bitter with some lingering yeast and bubblegum notes.
