Pale, hoppy and very easy drinking. Two American hops from the Pacific Northwest give the citrus punch required for this style of winter ale. The finish is clean and crisp, just like virgin snow underfoot!

From cask at Farmers Boy, St. Albans, Hertfordshire, 07.01.19 on tour to 22 southern counties with OGJ and EE 07.01.19. Clear pale golden. Foamy bright white head and lacing. Refreshing aroma and taste of citrus and marmalade. Surprisingly crisp mouthfeel.

On cask at the Yorkshire Terrier in York. Appearance - lemon gold with a nicely proportioned head. Nose - lemon and yeast. Slight floral. Taste - oranges and creamy lemons. Palate - light bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - a good example of the style.

Cask @ Winter Gardens, Harrogate. Blonde with a thick frothy head. It’s a dry hopped ale, but crisp with a good fruitiness in both its aroma and taste. Very easy drinking.
