Cask conditioned handpump King Billy Northampton (The I’m going to Rush crawl). A straw coloured beer with a slight haze and a white head and lacing. The aroma is hoppy with lemon notes and some soap. It is quite spritzy on the nose. The taste is the same. Good hoppiness and even a little funk. Tasty.
