UPDATED: SEP 16, 2007 Aroma is very fresh and citrusy, with some grassyness going on aswell. Taste is similar quite bitter and dry in the mouth, good session beer for this hot summer! Rerate: Cask Backfriers, excellent excellent session ale. Citrus character eveywhere you look, subtle and rediculusly easy to drink.
