Silver Dollar is our highly popular, award winning American Pale Ale. This 4.9% ale features a glowing amber colour, robust malt base and west coast American hops. The solid malt backbone allows us to use more of these hops, which feature a higher alpha acid content, giving a bold citrus fruit flavour and a piney character quintessential of this style of beer. The bitterness is lasting but not overpowering.
Malt: Crystal, Maris Otter, Munich & Torrefied

Bottled. Ambery golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is bready and a bit dusty maltiness along with some slight caramel, zest and mild herbal and berryish notes. Flavour is quite similar, but more dominating in a kind of fruity way.

14th Mar 2015: 500ml bottle at home during a mini rating session with myself. Poured into an Abbot Ale badged glass tankard, nice clear amber body, the head a swiftly fading affair. The nose and initial taste was caramel sweetness, then the citrus and bitterness bites. Refreshing, the finish being slightly dry. If you could get a ’Toffee Grapefruit’ on a stick at the fair, it would taste like this.

500ml Bottle - Amber with a foamy head. Toffee, peach and a hint of pine in the aroma. Hoppy, tangy and slightly fruity taste with notes of grapefruit, peach, toffee and dried apricot.

5% 500ml bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours a surprisingly dark brown. Basically, it’s a bitter. Where are the hops?

Cask at Cask Pub and Kitchen, Pimlico, London. An amber/gold coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Fruity, hoppy aroma. Tastes fruity, hoppy, orange, some caramel and a pleasant sweetness. Lovely stuff.
