October 04 picked up a bottle from the New Inn pub close to the brewery in Cropton. Golden hoppy beer with hops on the aroma and taste quite refreshing good beer.

A hazy orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet hoppy and grassy, while the flavor is hoppy - with a clear presence of Golding, giving it a dusty flavor, but also some grassy notes. No wonder the body is thin, but otherwise a nice bitter.
