Half-pint, festival cask ale at JDWs Glass Works. Patchy white head fading over a near-clear, golden body. Moderately aroma of dried fruity hops. Dried fruity taste, too, with notes of pineapples. Sweet and rather floury in the mouth. Quite possible to drink, maybe a bit disjointed (London, 05.11.2012).
