Smooth and easy drinking, this bitter pale ale is inspired by the US craft beer boom using four hop varieties, and has a light citrus taste.

Bottle from ASDA, Manchester. Clear golden with next to no head. Has a hoppy and dry pale ale character with some fruitiness in both aroma and taste. Easy to drink and feels good in the palate.

Clear golden brown with thin white head. Nice aroma with citrus and pine hop notes, with some toasty biscuity hints. Light body, medium somewhat fizzy carbonation. Hops feature in the taste from start to finish, but are not aggressive. They give a nice citrusy freshness at the start and a good bitterness in the finish. However there isn’t really enough balance in terms of malt or other flavours. Nice bitter hoppy beer but seems unbalanced.

Amber to light brown. Strong citrusy aroma. Flavour also has bitter and sharp citrus peel. Pleasant malty background too.
