A brilliantly golden yellow ale. Packed with Cascade hops for a great floral and citrus flavour.

One of our first golden beers we made. The recipe hasn’t changed too much either, a good helping of Cascade hops, and then packed with Jester and Olicana.

Malt: Crystal, Pale, Wheat
Hops: Cascade, Jester, Olicana

1/3 pint, gravicask shared with Finn at GBBF Winter '23. Warm golden body, close-to-clear. Poor lacing, missing head. Ripe orange aromas, scent of mildly sweet brown malts. Malt-fruity flavours, caramel and orange. Ends dry, malt-fruity. Satisfying. (Burton upon Trent 16.02.2023).
