Mark Szmaida has travelled to Banks’s Brewery in the West Midlands to brew this golden-amber beer for us. The hops used provide pine & citrus notes in the aroma and flavour, giving a gentle bitterness that is balanced by a dry malt finish.

Pours a clear orange amber colour with a frothy off white head. A sweet fruity aroma, mandarin and peach. Some underlying sweetness complimented by orange peel and a mild spicy woody bitterness with a lasting bitter finish.
