We use American hops to give this new-world amber ale its light and fruity flavour. It’s light and crisp on the palette with a delightful hoppy & citrus finish.

[Cask at the Claude du Vall (JDW), Camberley.] A pale amber pour with a tight white head; grainy aroma; sweet grainy taste; and a grassy bitterness. More like a real lager than a Amber Ale.
