Hand pulled at the Anchor, Birmingham. This was called Gold Tea when I had it, but it souds exactly the same as Lea describes below. Very odd beer - just like drinking lemon iced tea (duh). Moments of dry, leafy flavour, punctuated by spritzy citric sweetness. Golden colour, and not much aroma. Hard to get your head around, but tasty - this has a different feel to most bitters.

Looks like cold tea (as many beers do I suppose). The aroma is tea and cigars. Tea is also the dominant flavour along with some mintiness. An interesting experiment albeit a poor beer.
