A top quality blonde beer made using only Marris Otter pale malt to give a light and refreshing clean taste. Moderately hopped with Challenger and delicate New Zealand Hallertau hops. This is the perfect easy drinking beer for hot summer days!

Cask gravity at Kent BF 2013. Hazy gold lasting white head. Soapy hoppy beer. It’s ok some interesting hop flavour. Some kind of antipodean hop I guess. Interesting.
