Brewed with the “greening up” and longer days of Spring in mind, ‘Houndstooth’ is here to help you welcome warmer months and sunny vibes. We mashed this little pub ale with floor malted Maris Otter, Golden Naked Oats and a small amount of Crystal 80, then hopped it with East Kent Goldings & First Gold. Low abv, subtle esters and balanced bitterness make this supremely crushable British-inspired ale perfect for enjoying any time.
Unfiltered, unfined, and naturally carbonated, this beer pours a deep and satisfyingly gold color. We get notes of apricot jam, slightly undercooked pizza crust, white tea, tobacco blossoms and a moreish quality that keeps us reaching for another pint.
