An amber lager hopped wholly with British hops and brewed with our good friends Three Blind Mice Brewery to celebrate the turn of the season. A combination of Munich & double roasted Crystal malt provides a bready biscuit base perfectly complementing the Admiral & First Gold hops with their flavours of orange & floral spice.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers! Aroma is a bit like honey nut cornflakes, grainy, malty and caramel. Taste has the caramel coming through with more biscuity grainy elements. Nice finish.
