A classic India Pale Ale, refreshingly bitter and light amber in colour. Cascade hops add floral citrus notes and a distinctive hoppy finish. Created to reflect the history and character of IPAs and their voyage to distant lands, this distinctive ale was brewed in collaboration with the Talyllyn Railway, the world’s oldest preserved railway based here in Snowdonia.

500ml bottle @ Myrddin’s Bar Caffi, Barmouth. Pours a light amber, small white head. Aroma has distinct floral citrus, continuing to taste. Easy-going, but with more of a hop presence than I expected. Nice soft citrussy fruits, with a low bitterness and a great moreish quality. Did the job outside the caff on this balmy Summer’s evening.

20th Nov 2015. First beer of the day in the UK Virtual Bar thread. 500ml bottle into a straight sided UK pint glass. Lovely autumnal orange body, clear and bright, on top a full white crown of foam. Really enjoying this as I do a live rate. Great blend of aromas and flavours with the hops just about coming out on top in both the nose and taste. Bitter, refreshing and easy to drink. Good stuff.
