Originally brewed as a 'green hop' ale. This version is with dried EGK but brewed in exactly the same way, using lager yeast fermented at ale temperatures. Available in bottles and cask.

Bottle at home, 12/04/20. Clear golden copper with a well presented off white head. Nose is toasted malts, cereals, grains, light spice, dusty fruits, lemon drizzle, grass. Taste comprises pale malts, light herb, lemon rind, grass, faint chalky minerality, dusty fruits, crackers. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok for the style … not a lot going on really but not unpleasant.

Clear gold- amber beer, small bubbly off white head. Palate is light and semi dry, decent carbonation. Thin clean malts, a pleasing subtle cereal touch, any stronger and it would annoy me. Hops (Target, EKG and Aurora) bring a nice mellow floral citrus with touches of peel and subtler complex fruits. A little spice on the finish which is crisp and dry. Nice job. Clean and quaffable.

Pours rather clear, amber. Frothy, stable white head of average size. Scent shows mild bread, some caramelly malts, touch of peppery spice. Taste is full, caramelly, bready, sharp, tad metallic . medium body, medium high to high carbonation. Decent, at best.
