A robust golden ale, refreshingly hoppy with bittersweet fruity aromas, Piston Broke is a blend of Goldings and Cascade hops that never fails, whatever the weather.

Cask at The Central Bar, JDW, London. Pours clear, rich gold with a fluffy but fading white head. Light biscuits and wet hay aroma. Light to medium sweet flavor, some cereal, biscuits, dough and straw. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Faintly bitter finish, more crispy straw and mild dough. Somewhat bland in character but not offensive in any way.

Cask handpull at Baker Street Spoons. Clear pale brown with no head. oh now that is not my type of bitter. Bit of green apple. Yeast character on aroma carries into body. Not enough malt or hop balance to cope with the strong yeast character. Ok but not me

On gravity at Swindon BF 30/10/08. Golden coloured with a slight white head. Aroma of hay and grassy hops with a touch of sweet malts. Flavour had some sweetish biscuit malt, followed by floral, grassy hops and a decent bitter finish. Good.
