Cask handpump at The Wellington, Birmingham. Slightly gold, but not much colour at all. Caramel and citrus in the scent, but the main thing to talk about is what this beer does in the mouth: The first thing one notices is how alive it is on the palate. Then one is hit but a very fruity-perfumed set of aromas in the front of the mouth before one notices the bitterness towards the back. After swallowing, the perfumed aromas return as an aftertaste. Good stuff!
