Named after the first US space station, Skylab is aptly brewed with a trio of American hops – Simcoe, Columbus and Mosaic®. Having been for a dry hopped ride in our beloved ‘Hop Rocket’, this crisp India Pale Ale is packed full of zesty, fruity flavours. A stellar session IPA.

Hand-pulled pint in the Bacchus, Birmingham on 5th August 2023, first pint of a Stag Do (for little Andy, who is AndyTF2 on here). It's dark in the Bacchus, but the bright golden body of this shone out well, staying white crown too. Hop first with a fruity and piney aroma/taste, nice start to a heavy days drinking.

Cask at Ring of Bells, Taunton. Pours clear dark gold with a cream cap. Aroma: pale malts, light caramel, hints of grass. Taste: light sweet & bitter, dry taste, maybe a smidge of citrus. Medium body with soft carbonation. Just OK.
