Cask at Wellington, Birmingham
Hazy golden color, with small and persistent frothy head. Mild aroma of malt, with a light cheese trace. The mouthfeel is smooth and quite dry, with some dry toffee flavor, and bitterness well beyond British boundaries, leading to a drier final; there is a bit of aromatic hop components.
Not a modern take, just a good classic Golden Ale.
