A real showcase of the fabulous Soracchi Ace hop, Acer is a 3.8% beer with a huge hop kick to it, ripe tangerines, resinous hops and a blast of citrus play around on a solid bready malt backbone... it surely can't only be 3.8% with that much flavour!

Bottle at home. Aroma is grassy , zesty lemon hint of earthy. Orange in colour with a slight haze and thin white head. Flavour is big on that signature sorachi ace hop cahracter, which i love. Firm piny bitter finish that lingers in the mouth. medium sweet. caramel malt somewhat balances the bitterness. This is a fantastic session beer packs a huge punch for 3.8%er. Great.

Cask @ York Tap 060112
Golden amber....thin white head...good lacing
Not much on the nose - some caramel malt...Taste of light caramel malts...biscuity malt...bit of grassy citrusy hops.
Palate - soft carb..thin to medium body...pit powdery. Finish - hop bitterness comes through more....grassy straw hops...then a cereal digestive biscuit malt tail...cleans well...quite a complex finish.
Overall - A really nice 2 stage finish - very good for only 3.8% abv.
