Crisp fruit greets the nose before a wave of melon and grapefruit. Bittersweet finish.

HERITAGE
A beer style born from true innovation that Lacons first brewed in the early twentieth century. Exploring the possibility of producing more consistent and paler ales, brewers found that by changing fuel in malting kilns from wood to coke - which burnt hot and steady - a beer was created with a unique well-rounded pale malty taste.

Cask at the Buck, Rumburgh, Suffolk. Pours a slightly hazy golden amber with a small off white head. Aroma of biscuit, caramel, fruit and hop. Medium sweetness, heavier bitterness. Medium body, creamy texture. Average carbonation. Finish is dry, bitter and biscuity. Nice.

Call at the old black bull, Preston. Pours clear pale gold, thin white head. Light soap, light bread aromas. Taste is more of the same, lemon notes too. Light sweet malty finish.
