At 3.9% abv, Golden Poacher is the perfect thirst quencher.

Bravo and Gallena hops all the way through, this beer has bags of aroma with crisp citrus coming through in spades.

Magnificently hoppy, you'll find yourself swirling and sniffing this beer all the way to the last drop.

Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading. Clear gold with a thin white head and a moderate prickly fizz. Dusty with light sweet and sour citrus, a touch of cream, got some herbs and rock and marzipan before a dirty bitter finish. Started below par, got worse; despite the flavours being light it was pretty unpleasant by the end.
