With a palate that is fresh, piercing and focused, complemented by soft malt overtones and pronounced citrus flavours. A strong focus of taut, lemony, grapefruit on the finish which is balanced by a dry bitterness.

Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Golden and cleat with a small uneven white head. Pear drops, apple juice, resin in the aroma. Sweet juicy taste with a biscuity sweet note giving a gentle balance. A simple little pale ale but a joy to drink.
