Pint on cask at the Guildford Arms, Edinburgh, UK.
Poured a surprisingly clear golden colour with a fluffy white head. Surprising flowery hops mixed with spicy fruitcake underdones in the aroma. In the flavour, the hops come across a little more grassy with notes of clover or other wildflowers. Quite bitter, but not astringent. Mild, slightly dulled aftertaste. Mouthfeel is a bit watery, in my opinion, which detracts from the beer overall. Still, quite drinkable and worth a try.

Pours a semi-hazy gold and caramel color with a slightly off-white puffy head. Lots of creamy lace.
Aroma of hay and grass with some tea-like and toffee aroma in the background.
Flavor is really dominated by a hay-like pale malt note hiding some toffee and tea notes.
Mouthfeel is not nearly has creamy as appearance would indicate. Short and somewhat gruff is the way I would describe (kind of like Davo). Really astringent on the finish.
Drinkability is above average but astringency actually made me thirsty rather than quenched.
