Well balanced and moreish, this golden ale has a delicate malt base that offers light biscuit crumble, complimented by dry grapefruit and a floral, hop finish. Unfiltered yet crisp, this light bodied ale is a modern classic.

Cask at The Catford Beer Festival 2026, Catford Bridge Tavern. Nose is toffee, nuts, touch of citrus. Flavours are much the same with a splash of peach coming through in the back end. Malty bittersweet fruits. Good stuff.

Cask 2l takeaway from Flintgate, Weybridge. Aroma combines malty biscuits with stone fruit. Very pale yellow-gold. No head. Light sour stone fruit with malty sweetness and some spice into the finish. Not a great flavour combination for me. Light bodied. Thin. Soft carbonation. Astringent finish. The mixture of sweet and sour does not do it for me.
