A Mes rate: cask at the Crescent.
Hazy yellow gold with a thin white head and lots of lace. Good wheaty lemony hoppy stuff, very bright and citric. Good bitter finish and very downable.

Catagory A : Golden Yellow ... light fruity lemon hop nose ... soft dull light lemon hop
Catagory B : Amber ... light dry lemon hop ... soft light lemon hop with a little malt in background
Catagory C : Amber ... soapy lemon nose ... light brigh lemon hop
Catagory D : Amber ... light grassy lemon hop ... dry grassy lemon hop
Catagory E : Amber ... light grapefruit hop ... again light hop with a little grapefruit
This is a Catagory A @ the Star festival Hudersfield
