Our latest seasonal a copper coloured ale, with a fantastic hop profile. Wil thinks it may be our best beer this year - but there’s some stiff competition for that title!

Cask at CBC Clerkenwell - London. Pours clear gold with a light, white foam head. Toasty straw in the nose, some biscuits. Medium sweet flavor with semi-ripe citrus fruits, hay, moderate pale malts, light tangy fruits, lemon, faint berries, bread. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Great condition. Modest dryness to finish, some dirty straw, sticky grass, mild biscuity pale malts. Good one.

Aroma: Clean but difficult to discern. Some grain and citrus.
Appearance: Clear amber body with a dense off-white head. No carbonation. Good lacing.
Taste: Typical Fyne Ales ’bright’ hoppy taste. A little bit earthy and soapy with some white wine characteristics. Quite hoppy for a bitter. Lingering bitter finish.
Palate: Medium body with a slightly oily texture. Flat carbonation.
Overall: Another delicious beer from arguably Scotland’s best brewery. One of the lightest, hoppiest bitters I’ve tasted.
