5-6% abv. Malted barley. Dry and light-bodied to better showcase the individuality of the hops in both aroma and flavour. A basic recipe is followed, with each batch utilising different hop varieties from around the world based on seasonality, availability, and the whims of the brewer. Single hopped with Nugget.

Bottle from Salt Horse. Hazy golden body with a thin white head that slowly fades. Steady carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of orange and bay leaf. Flavour of grass and spicy yeast. Thin to medium body with a watery texture. Soft fizz. Sharp and bitter.

Draft @ ML Fontainas. Dorée claire, col blanc crémeux. Arôme au bouquet herbacé base de grains en retrait assurant une belle balance. Petite touche de pin, américain, fleuri. Palais est malté, pils Marris, houblonné très bien dosé et plaisant. Léger fleuri, voire bourgeon, Brewer’s Gold en rappel, citronné touche de résineux, herbacé sur la fin. Classique léger, sans avoir une trop forte présence de poudre houblon.

Bottle at home picked up from the brewery a few weeks back. Love a Kernel catch up rate. A bright golden yellow coloured pour with a light loose white head. Aroma holds some leafy citrus, orange rind, , semi sweet soft bready grains, little whiff of alcohol. Flavour is composed of lightly rustic base grains, rustic bread, orange peel, bitter grapefruit, grassy hops. Palate is semi sweet, grainy, highish carboantion and a crisp finish. Aggressive back of the throat bitterness is a bit out of balance.

Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. 5.1%. Pale amber. Quite hazy. Kernel head. Nose has an earthy, blackcurrant, blackberry thing going on. Some ripe orange pulp. Notes of ripe stone fruit. Quite unusual, but really fresh and juicy. Taste is sweet, with plenty of that earthy blackcurrant. Turns light, citrusy bitter. Light to medium body. Soft carbonation. Juicy, but earthy at the same time, on the finish. I think I must like Nugget hops.
