Cask, from the cellar, at the Harlequin, Sheffield, on RateBeer Valley of Beer Crawl ’08. Thanks to evilempire for this one. Gold with a small white head. Sweet fruity aroma. Taste is slightly citric and watery. Very little in the way of bitterness. Easy drinking golden ale, well crafted for a hot day like today.
