Our premium strength pale ale ‘Aurora’ has a satisfying blend of malts to provide a juicy backbone and a pale amber colour.
An expansive blend of US hops give a resinous mouthfeel – big citrus & tropical fruit flavours, which are prominent, yet well balanced.

Hand-pulled cask pint in The Three Fishes, Shrewsbury on 8th Dec 2015. Decent golden coloured body, the head a soft white pillow of foam that gave some impressive lacing. Grapefruit aroma and taste, maybe other citrus notes but to me the Grapefruit esters and flavour was dominant throughout. The alcohol level suited the brew, refreshing and interesting, even if a little too ’Grapefuity’ for my palate.

Cask at The Harp, Covent Garden, London. A dark golden coloured pour with a healthy white head on top. Fresh, hoppy, tropical fruit aroma. Tastes similar, hoppy, tropical fruit, citrus, some pine with a bitter finish. Easy drinking APA.

Cask at Cambridge Brew House, Cambridge. Mid-gold, ever so slightly cloudy. Big on carbonation and lacing. Pineapple/citrus aroma, with a gritty resinous note holding it back a bit. Bitter taste with some sweetness around the edges. Bitter and hop oily down the back of the tongue and throat. Hint of astringency and bubblegum, weirdly. Full gum-tingling palette. A good ’un.

On tap @ BierCab. This is a cloudy looking kinda deep peach golden, some mild amnerbess in this and it has a nice big frothy lacing off-white head. Nose vise I get a fair amount of sweet red berries blended with yeast residues. Yeah, quite a fair amount of yeasty notes in this glass. Not super pleasant to be honest. Caramel sweetness, red caramel and yeasty nuts. I've smelled more inviting pale ales to be honest, but I guess it works. If has a soft carbonation level and a gliding oily feeling in the mouth. It's actually both quite toffee sweetish and zesty bitter this. It's clearly not a fresh keg this, or I hope it's not cause it sure doesn't taste all that fresh. Almost a little wood tart or even thin vinegary in the finish. Slightly oxidized in a way also. It definitely gets the job done though, cause I'm enjoying it more and more. 05.08.2014
