This is our ’white label’ beer, brewed in limited production runs so you might never see the same beer twice. We use a simple pale malt profile, and generous additions of a single hop variety to allow the characteristics of that hop to really shine through.

This batch features Pacific Jade hops.

Manchester Beer Festival 2017. Golden in colour. Heavy textured with its hop, slightly dirty tasting too in this respect. Has a metallic-sugariness with toffee notes in its nose.

Craft 100 at Craft Clapham. Cask. Hazy gold beer, bubbly white head. Palate is light, fairly dry and for a cask beer has a good level of crispness. Thin malts, lightly sweet. Nice floral NZ hops, sweetish floralness with a good tangerine streak and a splash of lime. Light finish. Tasty stuff and nicely showcasing the Pac Jade. Vocation are one to watch for.
