Giovanni Campari has travelled to Hook Norton Brewery in Oxfordshire to brew this copper-coloured beer for us. The beer is generously hopped with a host of different varieties, resulting in a complex, enticing aroma, leading to a lightly toasted caramel flavour which perfectly balances the bitter finish.
