Tried off cask at The Rake in Southwark, London.
Pours a hazed pale golden colour with a very fine head of white. Brilliant, intricate tiny pockets of lace. Fine powdery carbonation. Looks great.
Nose is a little bit weak. Some dusty grain characters, hints of herbs and a slight mild sweetness a little like melted vanilla ice cream. Slight eggy overtones as well. Solid base of malt underneath though.
Taste is much better. Very clean, bright and fresh, with sharp herbal tones and a lovely crispness towards the back. Malt is smooth, but not obtrusively sweet. A lilt of fresh mint on the afterpalate. Lovely balance all up. Feel is smooth and clean. Very pleasant indeed.
Overall, this is a cracking, extremely drinkable brew. A bit high in alcohol to continually session, but it's still a beer I feel like slamming down. Such good balance in a beer has that effect.
