This Pale Ale takes its name from the castle built by King John in 1207, which is located less than a mile from the original Brewery, and from where he rode out to Runnymede to sign the Magna Carta. The beer itself is deep amber in colour with a blend of pale ale and crystal malt. The bitterness and fruity aroma are developed from a combination of hops.

dark amber color. Lots of Crystal malt. Fine well balanced mouth. Earthy, subtle. British, very British. A bit heavier than usual, but very quaffable.
