Frisco is our take on the esteemed California Common. We have used the
experimental hop HBC 522 for an alluring aroma of pine and mango which leads into a light sweetness punctuated with caramel and orange. This style is brewed for balance and drinkability, perfect for relaxing with after a long day.
Hops: HBC 522
Malts: Low Colour Maris Otter / Caramalt / Wheat

Can, small stable bubbly head, quite clear darkish gold color, malty, caramely with a mellow medium herbal bitterness. Nice and simple.

Can, thanks a lot Fin! Clear golden, white foam. Very nice fresh citrus and tropical perfume aroma. Medium body, fine sparkly mellow chewy mouthfeel. Crisp with a layer of hop perfume. Excellent, just what I needed after painting my living room.

Can thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden with a proportionate slightly off white head. Nose - sweetcorn and bread with just a hint of something citrussy. Taste - citrus this time, but again dominated by the corn and malt. Palate - light bodied. Dry-ish finish. Overall - decent.

Can. Beer Central, Sheffield. Clear gold. Thin, semi lacing, lasting, white head. Nose has semi sweet grain. Some toasty notes. Some dried fruit. Smells like a beer that ought to be way darker in appearance. Taste has light sweetness. Nice hop bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel. Fine carbonation. A little dry and a little bitter on the finish.

440ml can from Thornbridge Brewery Shop - Clear gold body, no head. Pretty low aroma, not many prominent notes. Taste has a sharp tropical hit, finishes clean with a short ending.

Can picked up from Thornbridge webshop, Bakewell, Derbyshire, UK consumed at home Thursday 26th November 2020 whilst listening to Steve Lamaqs Evening Session on 6Music, we had a takeaway pizza for tea. Pours gold, good clarity, clear as a bell. A little resinous on the nose along with citrus, these aromas follow through into the flavour department, but with a light malty edge. Good beer, soft mouthfeel, dry finish, quite crisp.
