Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Cork & Cask. Pours slightly hazed gold with a foamy, white head. Light to medium sweet flavour with supportive pale bread, semi-ripe tangerine, melon, peach. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Subtle resin in the finish, more pale bread, peach and tangerine, orange rind. Quite enjoyable.

Can. Murky deep golden body with an off-white head. Low carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of apricot, pickled pineapple and toasted coconut. Flavour of bay leaf and lime pith. Medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Biting and raw. Sabro is a cool hop but best used sparingly.
