Just the beer we want to drink after long day in the brewery. Gloriously pale with lots of body and gratuitously hopped with Nelson Sauvin for a full fruity flavour.

Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 3rd December 2017. Slightly hazy gold with shallow foam and initial lacing. Intensely fruity aroma. Blend of peach and citrus in-mouth. Citrus finish with light grassiness. Quite interestingly the aroma is the salient point in this beer. Light bodied with an equally light, somewhat watery mouthfeel.
