Standing Stones is Lymestone Brewery's June ale, and has been produced with the warm summer days and evenings in the wonderful British Countryside and the longest day of Summer Solstice to mind. This pale golden beer uses Maris Otter Malts and English hops to provide a balanced light summer ale. Just the thing to while away those long summer evenings! Is this crisp, golden hoppy beer a monument to a bygone age or yet another timeless classic ale from the Lymestone brewer? Only English ingredients of course!
