The perfect match for the beautiful game. Bright citrus notes, a punchy hop character and the kind of refreshment that sees you through to extra time.

500ml bottle purchased as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Light reddish-brown and clear with a thin beige head. Woody aroma: some oak, birch, light berry, orange peel, hint of sweet cooking spices. Clean sweetness to the taste, with light hoppy bitterness through to the finish. More of that oaky character. B-road citrus notes in the finish. Light body with carbonation on the heavy side. Surprisingly good.
