We’ve set out to prove that an easy drinking, everyday beer can still be special.
Layers of US hops are set against a backbone of British malts, so what this beer lacks in strength, it makes up for in character.
Look out for fresh flavours and aromas of pine, peach, lychee & citrus fruits, tempered by a smoothly rounded bitterness to leave you wanting more.

Cask. Sheffield Tap. Clear gold. Thin, dense, lasting, sticky white head. Orange and peach hop. Grainy, buttery malts. Some soft grapefruit notes. Taste is light, pithy bitter. Bit of sticky lippage. Decent body. Finishes light bitter, with a light sweet close. Good sessioner.

Chelmsford Beer Festival. Cask. Almost a clear gold beer, bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth and semi dry with modest fine carbonation. The pale malts bring mild sweetness. Spicy bitter floral hops. Trace of lime. Bitterish pine. Smooth dry finish. Strong bitter linger. Well hoppy, got a bit of a snarl about it.

Cask @ Calans, Hebden Bridge. Golden with a thick creamy head. Lots of tropical fruit to be had here in both aroma and taste with a small citrus sourness attached. Light, and dangerously easy drinking.
