A pale beer made with 100% Maris Otter low colour malt and a selection of the very best of Australian and New Zealand hops including Galaxy, Pacific Gem and Super Alpha. Striking aromas of citrus and passionfruit mellowing into berryfruit flavours with a crisp and refreshing, balanced bitter finish which brings you back for another.

Cask at the Shirley (Solihull) Beer Festival 2013. Poured a clear straw yellow with a bubbly white head. The aroma is weak malt and nettles leading to a medium hoppy bitter flavour with a smooth malty palate. The bitterness in the finish is a little odd and not entirely pleasant I have to say.
