We are very excited to work with Tonkotsu on their own beer. We know they put their heart and soul into creating the perfect ramen and we have collaborated to create a beer we are all proud of.
This pale ale is beautifully light and fresh with a tantalizing sweet orange aroma. On the palate expect a crisp, citrusy character that will complement your favourite ramen.

Can. Mild haze on this yellowish gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate with reasonable fine carbonation coming through on the back end. Smooth malts, a light and pleasing creamy sweetness. Smooth light pine over very mild satsuma and even lighter citric hop. Smooth finish. This is a pretty lightweight affair and could really use a lot more of the Satsuma, that said, it's well brewed and the drinkability factor is strong with this one.

Can from Thornbridge online shop. Hazy pale golden body with a thin white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of coriander seed and juicy tangerine. Flavour of lemon and straw. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. Clean and refreshing.
