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%.

Bottle picked up at the brewery. Not sure why this is a different entry, but hey ho. Aroma is pale grains, delicate floral hop, light grain husks, grass. Flavour is composed of semi sweet grains, grain husks, grassy hop, light hedgerow hop. Palate is grainy, moderate carbonation, semi crisp finish. Nicely balanced, easy going.
