With a wonderful golden colour and prominent citrus aroma, we’ve ensured that Special Pale Ale is nicely light and crisp, and is dry without being harsh. Special Pale Ale is a full-flavoured and really satisfying bitter.

Hazy honeyish colour. The aroma is honeyish and slightly earthy, with a very fresh cracked malt character. The flavour is very earthy with shiitake and honey notes, getting almost burnt late. Dryish finish is fairly appetizing.
