Shropshire Hop is a 4.3% powerfully hopped golden ale, aromatic and zesty. With a good depth of malt character, achieved by using a blend of four English grown malts. Dominated by a blend of English, American and New Zealand hops, creating a crescendo of satisfying bitterness, underpinned by pleasing floral notes.

A blonde ale from a brewery that always frustrates me, their beers promise so much but often fail to deliver. This one looks OK, pours a nice clear gold with a frothy white head, and there are some floral hops on the nose - but it then disappoints a little, the mouthfeel is semi-creamy, there are some hops going on and some sweet fruitness but the finish has a strange taste to it which kind of ruins everything that went before - so it's just another average Joules golden ale

Cask at (Ye Olde) Rose & Crown, Stafford (not listed in Ratebeer). Pours a golden yellow with a tight white head. Has a nice aroma of floral hops and lemongrass. In the mouth it is creamy with lemon and hops. Finish is sweet, but when that fades there’s a lingering taste of dishwater. Nice enough – until the end !

Cask half-pint in Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, Oakengates Shropshire on 19th Sep 2016. Golden pour, white head with lacing. Barnyard esters at first, thought it might be ’off’, the smell subsided and a light malty aroma arrived, followed by some mild citrus notes. Taste changed also, again I detected farmyards before the hops kicked in: actually apart from the ’manure traces’ I thought it fairly bland, so it’s ’off-ness’ made it interesting!
