On cask at the brewpub. Aroma is in the pines of the West Coast, lightly. Pours a pale orange, with calm soap settling above. Flavor is tangibly heavy in the high alphas, with faint honey sweetness and lots of water. A more respectable cask presentation than the ESB, however this lacks some amount of necessary body and followthrough with the hops. There are nice floral embellishments, but they fade fast into a grassy bitterness. Minerals. Soft. Buttery (not in a diacetyl way). Finishes dry and mostly clean.
