It’s a toad not a frog! Unmistakable citrus and floral notes from only the best American Cascade hops balanced with a crisp dry finish make this straw coloured ale a fantastic session beer. All that flavour in a 3.6%.

Cask at Draft House. Clear amber with a cap of creamy head. Musty, earthy aroma. One of the more bitter goldens I've had. Light maltiness with a healthy dose of bittering hops.

Cask at PoW, Farnborough. Nil aroma. A coppee gold. Bubbly white head. Medium bitter. Citrus and a decent kick. Medium bodied. Slick with a chalky mouthfeel. A light fizz of carbonation. Dry finish. As far as golds go this one keeps things interesting.
