Fruity, golden hoppy beer. Great depth of flavour and character.
The Trinovantes tribe’s territory was once on the north side of the Thames estuary in current Essex and Suffolk, and included lands now located in Greater London. Their name derives from the Celtic intensive prefix "tri-" and "novio" - new, so meaning "very new" in the sense of "newcomers", but possibly with an applied sense of vigorous or lively - so the name could mean "the very vigorous people". Their capital was Camulodunum (modern Colchester), one proposed site of the legendary Camelot.

Bree Louise. Cask. Lightly hazy gold beer, small white head. Palate is light and smooth, fine carhonation. Smooth pale malt, big honey streak, quite rich. Light floralness and ripe fruits underneath. Whisper of apple. Not bad, but very honeyish.
