Pale golden ale with an abundance of American hops. Golden ale, brewed with an outstanding trio of bold American hops for a full fruity aroma and flavour, with a refreshing citrus finish. Five seperate hop additions including a massive dry hopping of Citra give this beer its outstanding aroma and full-on flavour. Brewed in the North Pennines: Englands last wilderness.

50cl bottle from Marks & Spencer, Camberley. Great to see the extended range now on offer at M&S. This one’s a pale amber pour wth a billowing white head that fall sback to a thin coating; light floral aroma with some citrus; prickly in the mouth, with some sweet tropical fruit and a grainy body; and a dry peach kernel bitterness to finish. Rather good, a very pleasant easy drinking golden ale.
