Our take on what we think a traditional farmhouse ale should be – bright, vibrant and refreshing. For this beer we take Pilsner malt and combine with oats to provide a biscuity base, and then overlay with Brewers Gold and Crystal hops, orange peel and coriander to create a citrusy and seemingly hoppy beer.

Bottle from Gloucester Services. Pale gold with a middling fizz and a large, craggy white head. Sweet, bready aroma. Strong elderflower, then dry hay, sweet orange, yeasty buttery brioche, some white pepper. Creamy mouthfeel with a mild bitterness and a long dry finish. Decent.
