Our original (and most popular) beer! Sleck Dust is a straw-coloured, easy-drinking session ale. There’s a unique floral edge here that you won’t find in most beers, coming directly from a precise, closely guarded blend of Pilgrim and Northern Brewer hops.

5/10/2019. Bottle from the brewery, shared at the Wroclaw GP bottle share. Poured clear straw gold with a small frothy white head. Aroma of sweet malt, biscuit, butter, caramel and straw. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness. Moderate body, slight watery texture, average to soft carbonation.

Handpull cask at the Sir John Oldcastle, Farringdon. Light gold, clear with a small foamy white head. Very little aroma: some grainy notes, a bit of banana bread. Taste is sweet with lemon drops, dried banana and a bit of sweet cooking spice. Light oily body. I like this well enough, it's different from so many of the identikit UK golden beers.

Cask - Pours a clear yellow gold colour with a small foamy white head that settled. Aroma is light toasted pale malts and some citrus notes. Moderately sweet light malty taste taste, with a little hop bitterness. Average golden ale.

Bottle that Jim shared - cheers! - originally from Williams Farm Shop at Hornsby Freeport. Gold in hue with a thin white head. Flavour of grass urine, caramel and florals. Reasonable body, but not for me, I don’t like the flavour.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden with a decent head. Nose - lemon and oranges with malt backbone. Taste - yep, lemon barley water, but a bit sweetened. Palate - light bodied with a creamy texture and a long and fairly balanced finish. Overall - a decent scooper.

Bottle. Yellow-blonde in colour, next to no head. Has a pale ale character but a less than medium body that makes the already light hoppy fruitiness evident in its aroma even less so in taste.

500ml Bottle: BBD end of Jan 14. Poured into a UK pint sleeve during preparing a Sunday lunch in my hot kitchen: if found ’Sleck Dust’ an idea thirst quencher in every sense. Light amber/golden body with an off-white head that started thin and fell away a bit too swiftly for my liking. Mild citrus notes in a fruity and floral hop nose. Nicely balanced taste: hop bitterness with a citrus bent blend well with the semi-sweet malts to give a pleasant refreshing easy drinking session ale. My first beer from these guys: I’ve got two more different bottles to try, looking forward to them.
