We brewed our 1907 ale to celebrate the centerary of the world famous Isle of Man TT Motorcycle Races. That was 2007. In 2008 everybody wanted to know where our 1907 beer was! So we kept on brewing it. After all, if beer tastes this good, you might as well carry on celebrating...

1907 has aromas of tropical fruit, mainly Mango and Pineapple. It is dark gold in colour with smooth malt and fruit on the palate, with a hint of sweetness leading to a dry hoppy after palate.

Slightly hazy golden beer, creamy white head. Bitter, acidic citrus aroma. Given the strength it’s surprisingly mellow. Light and lemony, tangy on the tongue, some bitterness comes through as you get further through it and it ends up being surprisingly sour on the tongue. Would be sessionable were it not for the strength.

Bottle, hotel tasting. Clear bright golden color. Grassy aroma. Taste is peppery straw. I’m glad IPAs have evolved!

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - golden with a nice fluffy head. Nose - lemon and pink grapefruit. Taste - more of the same. The pink grapefruit has just enough sweetness to make this not overly sweet. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry balanced finish. Overall - yes, enjoyed this.
