Pale, crisp and lightly aromatic. Firecatcher brings together the best of British barley and wheat. Warming hints of honeyed nectar spark the intense and sharp gooseberry flames. Light in body but pleasingly quenching. Catch one and put out the fire.

Pale blond with thin head. Aroma and flavour both have a good level of citrus and pale malts. Quite full flavoured for a low alcohol beer.

Bottle from B&M. Golden. Colour no real head. Fruity aroma and a slight bitter taste. Slightly forgettable.

500ml bottle: BBD 31 Jul 16, poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard at home on 29 Jul 15, so pretty fresh. Clear golden body, deep foaming top. Aroma of tropical fruits and berries, floral too. The taste leans towards the citrus side of things but not overly. Refreshing and thirst quenching: a lot better than I expected to be honest.
