A flavoursome, hoppy beer at a very ‘sessionable’ ABV. Pale golden with a great aroma and freshness from the pine and lemony characteristics of the New Zealand hops. The brewers have packed in plenty of character and layers of flavour, rare in a 3.6% beer.
ABV dropped to 3.4% from Summer 2024

Bottle from Home Bargains, Manchester. Clear golden-amber with a very slight carbonation and a thin head. Stated pale ale, lots of hops with a tasty dryness to proceedings and some light tropical fruit notes.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - biscuits and malt bag. Taste - orange coming through and still plenty of biscuit. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy yet crunchy texture and a long dry crunchy finish. Overall - better taste than nose.
