This is an easy drinking yet full flavoured golden ale created using a blend of classic and New World hops. A great beer with food or savoured on its own. Its zesty citrus aromas overlay a heart of classic hoppiness. The zesty notes follow through on the palate backed with a light maltiness and the finish is crisp, tangy and refreshing.

We use four hops in Horizon; Fuggles, Styrian Goldings, Cascade and Mosaic. Flaked Barley, Caramalt and Pale Ale malt are also used to create this golden beer.

500ml Bottle from B&M - Unremarkable golden ale, clear yellow body, thick white head that lasts not that long. Nose is a bit like a lemon biscuit, not too sharp, with a hint of cereal there. Taste is clean, fresh and not very bitter. refreshing, yes - but that’s the only upside.

Bottle at home in London. Pours perfectly clear gold with a fairly rich, foamy white head. The nose offers some grainy, pale malts, light cereal, straw and hay. Light sweet flavor with some further cereal malts, light tangy hay, some faint cardboard, dust, lightly toasted straw. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Crisp finish with some crackery pale malts, mellow bitter hay and faintly tangy citrus, mostly lemon. The beer comes across as a touch watery. It’s an elementary golden ale, but not generally offensive.

Average. No dominating flavours or anything of real note when drinking. It’s not unpleasant, it’s just not really ANYTHING.

50cl bottle from the Sainsbury’s Beer Hunt range. Bright amber with a loose white head; light grassy hop aroma; bready malt flavour; clean, lightly hopped finish with a grassy bitterness. An instantly forgetable Golden Ale.
