Dry-hopping with Endeavor and Cascade gives citrus, berry and floral notes to a backbone of pale, crystal and wheat malts. Hoppy yet perfectly balanced.

Cask at Alexandra, Derby. Pours a murky orange-brown with minimal off-white head. There’s alcohol, malts and nuts in the aroma. In the mouth it starts off slightly sweet with a creamy texture, but bitterness gradually increases to dominate. Flavour has mixed hops and autumn fruits plus hints of alcoholic strength. Traces of spice and apricot later on as well. Finish is slightly sweet and boozy. This is reasonable.
