‘Stampeding Pale Ale’
This legendary big flavour beer just got even better. Now with even more Mosaic hops, this is a sensory sensation.

Last beer of a long day, 5th August 2023, Stag Do of AndyTF2. Cherry Reds, Brum. Cask half-pint. Clean and clear bright golden body, white crown. Mosaic hops do their thing, some light malt action calms them done, but this is all about the hops really. Citrus and berries from Mosaic (mostly).

Cask at Cherry Reds, Birmingham. Poured a clear medium amber colour with a mostly lasting bubbly white head. The aroma is tutti frutti tropical citrus hops. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a crisp, fresh, juicy citrus, herbal, floral perfume, mineral , light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Quite an adventurous beer for Fownes, but they pulled it off!

500ml bottle from brewery. Eye - slightly hazy gold, two fingers of clean white head. Looks the part. Nose - tropical aroma with a strong caramel malt background. Taste - tropical notes with citrus, caramel, biscuit, slight wheat-yeast undercurrent. Bittersweet at the end giving it a nice bite. Palate - medium body, a nice zing to the carbonation without being overdone, slightly chewy. Overall - this Session IPA has a body closer to that of a full IPA but manages to keep the flavours light and refreshing. Very good.
