Sampled at NERAX.
This bitter poured a hazy golden color with thin, white foam. The smell was distinctly sulfurous from a freshly tapped cask, but the next day the sulfur smell had subsided somewhat to that of a euro-lager. The taste was slightly sweet and fruity with a dry, almost chalky hoppy finish. The mouthfeel was dry with an astringent finish and lingering feel. The body was medium with light carbonation feel. Despite the sulfur smell, there was no sulfur in the flavor, and this was an enjoyable bitter.
