Brewed with a blend of the 7 “C” hops, including Cascade, Citra and Chinook to give a light and citrusy hop burst. Originally brewed to celebrate the world famous Cheltenham Gold Cup but it has proved so popular we now brew it all year round.

Bottle online from The Natural Grocery Store. Pours a clear golden colour with a medium sized throthy white head. Aromas of tangerines, peaches, floral and a little caramel. Taste has more citrusy notes, tangerines, peaches, caramel, peppery spice and hoppy finish. Medium body, average carbonation and very slightly oily mouthfeel. Quite good and certainly better than the Jouster and White Knight from the same brewery.

[Cask at the White Hart, Holyport.] A pale amber pour with a loose white head; citrusy aroma; crisp grapefruit taste with a sweet biscuity body; and a clean pithy citrus finish. A winner.

Cask pint @ The Abbey with Mum and Soph. Pours a deep gold with well-appointed white head. Aroma is soft grain. Taste is smooth, shining golden ale malt with some welcome fruity orange citrus moments. Decent pint.
