The ultimate yin-yang beer, Cosmic Pop hits the sweet spot between complex and twisting hop flavours and dark roast goodness.
It’s time to let loose your inhibitions and launch your mind into the stratosphere where darkness meets the light.
Hop flavours of grapefruit, lemon and pine are offset against a dark malt centre.

Cask at Lych Gate Tavern, Wolverhampton Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a small cream head and good lacing. Has a vague aroma of malts, but not much more. Texture is fruity but slightly watery, and flavours are mainly fruity hops, darks fruits and grains. Some biscuit and hints of chocolate too. Finish is bitter but with fruity undercurrents. Not bad at all, but I was expect a few more hops.
