UPDATED: JAN 8, 2011 Cask - Fur & Feather, Woodbastwick. A clear golden ale in colour with a fairly thin white head. The aromas are clean and fresh, quite grassy and a citric hop quality also to the nose. The flavours are also quite grassy, with some citric fruit bite and floral tones. A light, dry bitter finish rounds it off on the palate. Light body, soft mouthfeel.
