One of our single hopped range of beers, brewed using Bravo hops from the USA. This beautiful pale blonde ale has a lovely aroma of gentle lemon zest. It is refreshing and citrusy in the mouth, with a medium bitter finish.

Bottled 500ml (ABV 4.2%, BGonzo)
Clear golden colour, medium-sized white head. Light lemony, like they say, zesty. Light-bodied. Lemon zesty flavour, flowery notes but also a bit grainy-harsh finish. Lingering bitterness in the aftertaste. Aroma beats flavour.

Bottle. Hazy golden body with a lasting white head. Low carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of nettles, biscuit and grain. Flavour of grass, mint and lemon. Thin to medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Soft fizz. I hate to say it but these single-hop Mallisons beers are starting to merge into one another. Iโd love to see Mallinsons let their creative juices flow instead of playing it safe.

Cask at Holborn Whippet. Clear gold lasting white head. Slightly soapy golden ale still got the quality of a Mallinson beer just the hop makes it a little soapy good bitterness though. Good condition good bitterness. Spiced soap sounds terrier ended up being dry spicy and interesting
