We're unashamed in our love for our favourite hop, Citra, and have given it centre stage to show off its strong peach and elderflower aromas. We've also chosen Magnum hops as they lend a low subtle bitterness without overshadowing the rest of the beer. We’ve selected traditionally floor-malted maris-otter pale and crystal malts for biscuit and caramel flavours.

Cask handpull at the Foundry Brewpub. More a murky brown to be honest with lasting ivory head. Its fine. A bit muddy. Hops are half decent but overall a bit too muddy earthy

Milk jug version at Chriso’s, thanks to Ian. Golden, almost still, inviting citrus aroma. Dry, bitter flavor, a bit bland but nicely hoppy, citrus and a nice peppery finish.

Cask handpump at The Foundry Brewpub, Canterbury, Kent 16th July 2011, in company of Ian and the jolly nice brewer Tom? who gave us a tour and chat about the brewery. Clear dark gold/light amber. Earthy (Ian notes) minerally, flinty quite unusual. Really nice beer with a middling thrusty bitterness, nice sweetness. Some banana, it’s interesting and very likeable, some hops showing late on and there is a bitter finish. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

Cask at the Foundry, Canterbury. Pours copper with a small head. Aroma is astringent hops and cats piss. Taste has an astringent start. Grass and sharp hops in the finish.
