A honey coloured beer made entirely with hops grown on the British Isles. Bramling Cross, Pioneer and Northdown hops combine to give a full-bodied, tasty, hoppy beer.

Bottle at home – Christmas present from my brother Well the start is innocuous enough, just some dark citrus in the nose. Pours a golden yellow with a small white head. But the strength is in the flavour – it has a real bite. Loads of hops giving bitterness, plus pine needles and some orange fruitiness. A really dry finish as well. This is what a hoppy beer should taste like.

500ml bottle from the brewery, drank on 24th June 2018. One of a few beers sank after England beat Panama 6-1 in the World Cup. Copper hue to the golden body, snow white crown. Hoppy nose and initial taste, piney, woody and slightly fruity, malts appear mid sip and add some light sweetness to balance out the loaded hop content. Decent.

Cask @ White Lion, Heptonstall. Golden with a thin head. It has a hoppy-sugary nose with some of the sugar sweetness evident within the full body texture and taste.

Cask, half pint at The Brewery Tap in Leeds. Hazy, dark golden body. White, filmy-layer. Malt-fruity aroma and flavours, leafy hops and caramel malts. Bittersweet tail. A bit mealy in the mouth. Medium bodied and smooth. Satisfying British pale ale. 30.06.2013.
