Our blonde ale is a smooth, balanced, bear hug of a session beer. The bready, lightly caramel malt complements the premium variety of whole hops used, and with a light body, makes this a satisfying, authentic and moreish blonde, with hints of tropical fruit balanced with earthiness.

Cask at Seven Stars, Derby (not yet listed in RateBeer). Pours a pale yellow with a small white head. Not much of nn aroma – just some vague malty hints. In the mouth it starts out sweet and fruity with floral hops and some traces of citrus. Some bitterness comes in later with mandarin and hints of grapefruit and citrus. Finish is slightly sticky – it’s OK.

Cask in The Boot Micropub, Wellington on 20th September 2022. Third of a pint on a flight of three. Clear blonde body, decent white head. Malty/grainy front, some citrus action, but it's more about the malts than the hops.

Cask at the Shaking Hand, Shirley. Poured a crystal clear yellow blonde colour with an everlasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, floral hops. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a smooth, malt, mineral, herbal, yeasty, woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Lacked any positive flavours. The flavours that it did have were plain and not entirely pleasant.

Handpull cask at the Dog & Parrot, Eastwood, Notts. Light gold, clear with a ring of white head. Hay in the aroma, some grass, vanilla, buttered toast, lemon curd. Taste is a little bit buttery but mostly enjoyable with some sweetness in the initial taste. Grainy character in the finish. Light, oily body, soft carbonation. A little bit disappointing from a good brewery.
