Draught @ the Mill Bank, Coulter. Pours a golden-orange wih gentle bubbles and a reasonable head. The nose has raisins, malt and a hint of grapefruit. The taste has grapes and then malt. The palate is medium bodied, quite creamy and then the finish is a bit more malt than hops. Overall, this is quite good initially but it is let down by the finish.
