What better way is there to celebrate our Queen’s 70 years on the throne than by brewing a special Platinum Jubilee beer with which to raise a toast to Her Majesty? So charge your glasses and enjoy the fine balance of hoppy bitterness and malty sweetness in this strong golden ale…the perfect brew to mark this memorable occasion.

Bottle from the source. Clear bright golden color, edge bubbles. Aroma of light white pepper and straw. Taste is lightly bitter lemon and light stonefruit. OK

Gravity cask at the Rutland CAMRA Festival, Rutland County Museum, Oakham. Light gold, clear with a loose ring of white head. Bready yeasty aroma, white grapefruit pith. Sweetness in the taste turning to bitter quite quickly and leading to a dry finish. All through there is that odd yeasty character. A fairly typical strong-ish Grainstore beer.
