The original Hawkstone Lager. Bold, yet balanced, with a smooth body and top notes of light citrus complemented by a subtle, crisp bitterness and malty backbone. Setting the standard for a British Premium Lager.

Keg at The White Horse, Parsons Green, London. A golden coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, malty, metallic and slightly sweet. Quite decent for a lager and went well with my tasty steak meal here in the Sloaney Pony.

Fra fat på The Southwark Tavern: klar lys gylden med fint skum som varer. Lett å helle over drøvelen, her er det ikke mye motstand, men det var vel akkurat det jeg trengte etter en halvtime på Overground og Underground fra Hackney Central.

Bottle thanks to a friend. Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Aromas of light grassy hops and grain. Taste is clean and crisp. Not bad I suppose.

Pint at Craftys in Letchworth. Not the best pint and a bit too warm for a lager which impacted on the taste. This is a standard lager, not much taste and very simple.
