The ever-elusive White Whale – the one that got away, until now. A bold and modern take on the White IPA. Juicy bursts of orange and soft spice glide over a lean malt base, lifted by expressive Amarillo and Mosaic hops. A whisper of Belgian yeast adds gentle clove and pepper, threading through waves of citrus and pine. Bright, complex, and dangerously drinkable

440ml can thanks Mike for squirrelling this away for me. Shared with Eric in Eecke. Cloudy pale complexion, small white head. Aroma of mild yeast. Very modest Belgian wit notes to taste, ok hoppy pale overall but nothing like I expected.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. Cloudy orange gold with small white head. It has wheat and yeast notes with some orange zest and pine. Decent freshness to it. Soft mouthfeel including carbonation, semi-dry.

Third of a pint at the Shrewsbury CAMRA Beer Festival on 25th September 2025. Hazy light golden body, white head. Wheaty, yeasty and tasty. Spicy with a clove like flavours take over mid-sip.an interesting brew all round.

Cloudy gold with a frothy white head and a soft fruity aroma with a touch of yeast. Soft and smooth with tart fruit bitterness, wheaty notes and a dry bitter finish
