The palest maris otter malt provides a full bodied base for generous quantities of Goldings hops. Bitterness is pronounced, spicy and resinous and will smooth out over time. Dry hopping with extra Goldings before bottling ensures a full aroma and rich characterful bitterness.

Bottle at Fin & Loz’s tasting with Jan, Charlotte, Craig, Stella & kids consumed Sat 22.10.11 Jan brought this along, cheers Jan. Looks quite superb top marks for looks! Gold in colour with god clarity there is a white filmy head atop. A very decent IPA albeit very British in style, the hoppiness is very good, but again it is this that sets it apart from other IPAs as it is UK hops on show here and they do a good job, bitter and dry towards the end, really nice beer.
