Cask conditioned at The Woolpack, Banbury. Clouded gold with little head. Rough apple flavours to the fore, tart and cidery. Presumably being sold on its nudge nudge wink wink appeal. Not good.

Aroma is honey and floural hops. Taste is similar but a bit too bitter, honey perhaps leaves a bit of a bad taste in the mouth.
