Available March 2016 - Brewed with a new experimental British hop Press Gang is a light and crisp with a gentle citrus flavour. A refreshing golden ale perfect for those hot summer days. The press-gangs would travel to pubs, and drop shillings into the beer mugs of hapless victims. When the victim got to the bottom of their beer, they would find the king's shilling, and the press-gang waiting for them outside to drag them off.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at the Commercial Rooms, Bristol October 2016. Deep gold in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. A malty beer, with a touch of floral hops, before some sweet, slightly bready, notes and a moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Cask, hand-pulled third of a pint in The Shrewsbury Hotel (Wetherspoons in Shrewsbury) on 25th Oct 2016. Light golden amber body, level headed white crown on top. Mild citrus notes within both the aroma and taste, with a malty semi-sweetness below the surface, slight bittering finish to each sip: liked it.
