COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Special - August 2007 (Saints & Sinners series).
Platinum gold in colour, this refined premium beer has a light nose of malt and toasted cereal notes with a restrained and well mannered delicious fruity sweetness. A perfectly pretentious pint!

leaparsons (6335) - Leicester, Leicestershire, ENGLAND - SEP 24, 2011
Cask, Slug & Lettuce, Leicester. Golden with an off-White foam.  Aromas are light biscuit and caramel malts with honey and floral notes.  Some toffee with hints of wet cardboard.  Flavours are sweet biscuit malts with lemon.  Spritzy yeast with acidic citrus.  Quite a degree of underlying honey.  Dry on the finish with a peppery palate.  Decent yet unremarkable.
