A medium bodied pale ale. Refreshingly bitter with a fruity spicy aroma from the Williamette hops, balanced by the Marris Otter malted barley, leaving a long bitter finish.

Cask-conditioned at the Hope & Anchor, Bristol May 2017. Golden in colour, with a thin, white, head. Leafy hops, stone fruits, a touch of earthy, sweet, malts and moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Cask ale, half-pint, shared with Finn at Hope & Anchor. Clear amber-gold body, patchy white head, scattered lacing. Mild leafy hops on the nose. Taste of spiced fruit supported by caramel sweetness. Semi-dry ending. Pretty nice. (Sunday pub crawl in Bristol 30.04.2017).

Cask at the Victoria Inn, Rugby - 19/09/12. Clear golden in colour with a thin white head. Decent lacing ensues. Pretty muted nose of malt, hops and grain - no standout flavours, boring! Tastes a little grassy, pale malt, citrus tones allied to summer fruits. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation and a moderately bitter finish. File under ’W’ for whelmed!

Cask at GBBF 2010. A golden beer with no head. The aroma has notes of citrus fruits. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of citrus fruits, leading to a dry and lightly bitter finish.

Amber color, small white head. Raisins and apples in the aroma. Light body. Green apples, raisins in the flavor. Kind of refreshing. Very typical Moles flavor.
