A bright gold ale, using wheat, lager malt, and flavoured with an infusion of aroma hops. Clean and crisp to the palate with a hint of sweetness and a long fruit-filled finish.

Cask at the Seven Stars, Rugby - 31/10/12. Lightly hazed mid golden with a good frothy white head that soon clears. Good lacing follows. Nose of hops, citrus, light grass, touch of caramel. Tastes hoppy, a little grapefruit and citrus. Medium bodied with fine carbonation, smooth and leading to a bitter finish. Good tackle.

10th Feb 2012 sees me on a mini pub crawl around Wellington, Shropshire and pub number two has this on hand pull: this is a review of that cask ale. As the name suggests: it is a golden colour, almost lager like in appearance with its pure white thin crown of bubbles sat on top. The brewery claim it is tripple hopped, well it certainly has a floral hoppy aroma and taste. The malt content calms the hop bitterness down but this is still a fairly bitter tasting beer. Easy to drink and brewed locally, what more could you ask for?
