A classic pale ale, brewed from British pale malt and US Cascade hops. Smooth, fruity and full- bodied, with a deceptive bitterness to complement its alcohol strength. Refreshing citrus hop aromas complete the sensory pleasure.

Cask at The Vic, Preston. Best beer of the night by some margin, clear golden pour, citrus, herbal notes, alongside caramel and cereal malts. Some resin. Good balance of bitter and sweet on the taste. Creamy texture, full-bodied, and a lingering pleasantly dry bitter finish. Lovely.
