A traditional golden pale brewed with a combination of classic British hops for bitterness & spice and US Cascade for fruity, citrus notes. We carefully blend three different malt varieties for body and the rich biscuit quality which defines the style. Brewed at a sessionalable 3.8% Westway Pale Ale is a classic cask ale brewed the West (London) way.

Bottle from LCB. Clear gold with light white bubbly foam. A fairly standard biscuit like malt with citrus aroma. Taste again has a biscuit and tangy citrus note but there is a floral bitter hop presence in the finish which gives a nice crispness. Light bodied but has a slickness to it. Its ok.

Cask at the Pup and Duckling, Solihull. Poured a mostly clear yellow golden colour with a thin white head. The aroma is malt, light woody hops. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a smooth, earthy, light herbal, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm, 23 Apr 2022) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity nose with notes of apricots, peaches and citrus. Malty, fruity taste with peaches, apricots, leafy hops and a mild herbal bitterness in the finish. Light body, with a slight sweetness. Gentle, refreshing and tasty. Quite nice.

Cask on 15th Nov 2019; The Crown Inn, Oakengates Shropshire. Clean golden body, white head with lacing. Floral and hop laden nose, taste has some light maltiness below the crisp hop front. Decent blend with a fruity hop finish.

Pint on tap at Fountain's Abbey, Paddington. Cloudy amber beer with thin film of suds on top. Some grass and citric notes in the aroma. Refreshing and fruity with an interesting dry finish. Light but tasty ale.
