Sunburst is as pale as straw but bursting with juicy character, our American Pale Ale is sessionable, thirst-quenching and totally moreish. Featuring a medium body with a soft, juicy mouthfeel. Vibrant citrus aromas on the nose are followed by delicate tropical fruit notes and flavors, rounded off with a biscuity malt base and a hint of sweetness. Finishing with a light, smooth bitterness.

Handpull cask at the Codsall Station pub. Dark orangey gold, clear with a ring of off-white head and pretty generous lacing. Malty aroma, orange rind. Taste is sweet with a bitter edge, fairly imbalanced with the parts not gelling. A vegetal bitter finish. Medium body with little carbonation. Drinkable but doesnโt quite hit the mark for me.
