Our flagship beer, and firm daily favourite, is a classic European Pale Ale. Golden, crisp and bitter with a floral aroma owing to Slovenian and Czech hop varities, carrying notes of lemonbalm, tangerine, minerals and a touch of white pepper. Modelled after the late 19th century predecessors from Burton-on-Trent, it is one of the very few examples existing of a Burton Pale Ale.

Medium hazy golden with a white head. Malt forward with citrus, tropical bits, and some pine. Full bodied. Soft and flabby. A miss.

Aroma of malts, citrus, yeast, aromatic hops, light spices. Flavour is fruity and hoppy, some malty sweetness and a dry bitter finish. Carbonation is a bit too high for its own good.

17 February 2022. At Hal 16 (Dok Brewing). Cheers to the Teamleader crew!
Hazy orange, stable, foamy, white head. Aroma of mango, orange peel, tangerine flesh, melon, biscuit, freshly cut grass. Taste has sweet mango, melon, bittersweet tangerine, a bit zesty too over biscuity maltiness. Grassy & floral hoppy finish, bit piney, citrusy sourish and adequately citrus peel-like bitter. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Not too bad, easy drinker.

A clean mild pale ale, very well balanced body. A bit of funk, earthiness, good. Scandinavian kviek-like. Butchers tears tap ams

Bottle. Color: Slightly hazy golden to amber, white head. Aroma: Floral, fruity, bit resinous and lightly citrus hop, malt. Taste: Floral, fruity, malty, hints of yeast, combined with a decent, bit resinous, hoppy background. Herbal hints. Bitter orangepeel and tangerine notes. Subtle caramel notes. A quite complex Classic Pale Ale, as they call it themselves on the label. Different from (almost) all other Pale Ales I've had, I think because of the used UK hop varieties. Medium body, average carbonation. Nice one.
