Hoppy, sessionable IPA packed with resinous West Coast hops. Our best selling beer. Mosaic and Chinook do the talking here.
When Bob Marley wrote Small Axe in 1970, The Wailers were the ’small acts’ stepping up to chop down the ’big tree.’ Here’s to the little guys.. with their Small Axe.

Il gusto al naso resta attratto dal luppolo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana media. Il piano sottostante si presenta torbido. Il colore è giallo dorato torbido. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è intenso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. Sul tetto della bocca si percepiscono note di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, agrumi, spezie, pompelmo, ananas e arancia.

Hazy/cloudy gold with a bubbly white head and a lemony nose, with maybe a hint of resinous hops. Fizzy and cold, citrus hops a-go-go with just a touch of pine maybe, and a dry bitter finish

440ml can: BB 12th November 2024. Drank at my dad's on 30th January 2024. Light golden orange, hazy with a white head. Nice, easy blend of citrussy and piney hops with a decent bitterness; not a lot of malt action.

440ml can at Kongs, Cardiff. Hazy light to mid-gold with a bit fluffy white head. Tangerine, grassy aromas, some notes of pine. Sweet taste, more citrus and grassy elements leading to a gorgeous balance in the finish with just a suggestion if astringency. Hallelujah this is nice.

8/8/2019. Cask at the 2019 Great British Beer Festival. Pours hazy/cloudy pale golden orange with a bubbly/frothy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, grapefruit, tropical fruit, hops, resin and flowers. Medium plus sweetness, light to moderate bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, soft carbonation. Nice floral fruity finish. Decent brew.
