Hop bomb, more late hops than you can shake a stick at and because we felt like it we dry hopped it as well. Made with pale malt and a touch of wheat to give it a creamy head, then hopped using New Zealand’s finest to give a tropical fruit and lime peel aroma.

Cask @ Fox & Goose, Hebden Bridge. Blonde with a small frothy head. Dry hopped with a very sessionable texture. There’s some fruit evident but it’s more crisp than anything else.

Cask conditioned at Minehead Beer Festival 13/9/2014. Clear gold, with a slight, white, head. Grapefruit, pineapple and grassy hop aroma. Easy drinking, with more tropical fruits, some slightly creamy malts and a decent, dryish, finish. Enjoyable.
