Fresh hop flavours from a blend of English varieties (Emperor, Jester, and UK Chinook) give softer stone-fruit flavours on the nose and palate than the more traditional UK hop varieties. Notes of tangerine and pine with a moreish bitterness. Aromas of freshly cut grass with hints of blackcurrant, strawberries & cream.

On tap at The Pullman Folkestone. Hazy amber colour. Lasting white head. Certainly a lot of sherbet hops and some hedgerow hops used. Decent beer. OK pale malts. Some interesting sherbet hop with a little hedgerow fruit flavour alongside. Rosehip etc. Moderate bitterness on the finish. Interesting.
