Vanya Yam was conceived as part of a Team Building exercise during some Corporate training we did for Eden Mencap. Eden Mencap are trying to buy their building in Penrith and have a "Help us buy our home" appeal running. During their team building training, they were split into three teams who each had to devise and create a beer brand and then pitch it to some of our customers. Vanya Yam is Cumbrian Dialect for 'Almost Home' and we are donating a percentage of all Vanya Yam profits to their appeal. As a consequence, we can help Eden Mencap get from 'Vanya Yam' to all the way home.
Vanya Yam is a golden Ale with a delightful Hoppy taste and aroma. The classic IPA hoppy mouth feel is followed by a wonderfully, slightly citrus finish. At 4% ABV, it is an ideal beer for any occasion and a treat for the taste buds.

Bottle from Beer Ambleside. Appearance - golden with a big fluffy head. Nose - lemon, light dishcloth, with oatmeal bread lurking at the back. Taste - creamy oatmeal again. A bit bland and lacking in fruit apart from that. Palate - creamy and light to medium bodied. Fairly dry, but slightly astringent finish. Overall - so so.
