Hoppy, sessionable, UK Cascade hops give a slight citrussy flavour and a touch of Vienna malt creates a refreshingly dry finish.

330ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers!]. Hazy, orangey golden colour with average to huge, frothy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Bready malty and more yeasty than hoppy, fruity aroma, hints of grey bread, crisp bread, cereals, some apricot, peach, nectarine, minimally waxy overtones. Taste is slightly bitter, fruity hoppy, diluted hints of apricot, peach, nectarine, a minimally mineral, chalky touch, minimally bready, pale malty basis. Watery texture, minimally dry palate, rather coarse, prickly carbonation. Nice, almost Zwickel-like character due to the omission of filtration and yellow stone fruit flavours, balanced, refreshing, sadly quite overcarbonated - pretty decent.

Pro Panda thanks to Shig, 13/07/20. Almost clear orange to amber with a decent off white covering formed of bubbles. Nose is stewed fruits, caramel, bread pudding, light phenols. Taste comprises caramel, light citric peel, bread pudding, grass, melon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a low level of bitterness. Ok sipper but not a hoppy pale for me.

Bottle thanks to Grumbo: Poured with a big carbonated pop caramel brown with an off white head. Aroma is sweet toffee, malty. Taste is piney hops, light citrus with a strong malty backbone.

24/8/2019. Cask at the Briarbank Beer Festival, Ipswich. Pours hazy golden amber with a small bubbly off-white head. Aroma of malt, fruit, citrus, biscuit and dank hops. Moderate sweetness and bitterness. Moderate body, slight watery texture, soft carbonation. First I’ve had from this new brewery, work in progress. 2.8 (6362-11). 20/4/2021. Bottle from the brewery. Quite carbonated, but otherwise a big step up from the early cask I had. Earthy, malty, fruity, biscuit. Nice bittersweet balance. Good example of an English brewed Pale Ale.
