Samba City is a 4.2% abv clear wheat beer, brewed to celebrate a summer of sport and the vibrant and colourful spirit associated with Samba; the famous Brazilian musical genre & dance style originating in Rio de Janeiro.

Brewed with malted barley, wheat and cascade hops it's golden in colour with vibrant citrus aromas and a touch of banana on the palate, with creamy spicy notes from the wheat on the finish.

Samba City will be available in cask and mini cask in selected outlets during July and August.

We recommend enjoying a pint of Samba city with Thai fishcakes with sweet chilli sauce or try Moqueca (a Brazilian Fish Stew!).

Allergen advice : Contains Wheat and Barley.

Crowne, Wells a fair walk from the Sea, Cask. Hazy gold beer, no real head. Palate is light, mildly dry and has modest carbonation. Thin malts. Light lime and lemon. Floral botanicals. Light citric tang. Light finish. Not bad at all, could be quite sessionable on keg.

Cask at the Rose & Crown, Sandhurst. Pale amber with a ring of white head; sweet grassy aroma; thin in the mouth with a light biscuity taste; and some light grassy hops; then a sweetish finish. Disappointing.
