Aroma is citrus/Cascade hops and malts/hint of sweet bread. The flavor is fruit/citrus, English-style malts and a Cascade/slightly surprising medium bitter hop finish.

On cask at the brewery.

A: Pours a clear amber orange color. A dense white head forms, that recedes kind of quickly for a cask. Nice lace left behind.
S: A simple aroma of baked bread, biscuits, and nutty. A touch earthy hops. That is it, simple and enjoyable.
T: That toasted baked bread and nuttiness takes over up front. There is a small amount of buttery flavors, which a small amount of diacetyl is OK for me in an English style. Again an earthy hoppy character in the finish.
M/O: A lighter body than expected from a cask. It doesn't have the creamy coating that I want. Still well carbonated and easy to drink. I can come back to this with ease.

Its certainly a good example of an English Bitter, if not my favorite. A good try, and glad they tried a cask version of this. Even if not my personal favorite, nice to have when available on cask.
