Serve in English pint

Cask (handpump), GBBF 2004, day 1 (last beer). I think 30 beers in the day is more than enough, but a bit of a shame to finish on a low note. This has a golden colour but was dominated by a very heavy diacetyl butterscotch aroma, not helped by the fact that, being made with honey (Hungarian acacia honey apparently), it has some sweetness anyway. Consequently, it comes over a bit sickly and there’s not much in the way of bitterness to cut through. Not ready in my view. Drinkable, but not great.
