Great smacks of lemon and peach swoop in from above, gliding to the back of the palate for a graceful, well-rounded aftertaste. It’s a perfect pale for a proper pint, named after an extraordinary encounter with a beloved barn owl.

York Beer Festival 2025, Beer#19. Clear golden with a small glow. Strength driven but transfers as a sugary-fruity full-bodied beer. Feels sticky-sweet in aftertaste without the same impact on texture.
