Catcher is a bright, copper pale ale with a crisp initial bitterness, followed by a sweet, caramel maltiness and a dry hoppy finish.
English, American and New Zealand hops give a unique character, well balanced by Maris Otter malt

Cask at Moon Under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours “bitter brown” with a medium sized foamy off-white head and good lacing. There’s floral hops and caramel in the aroma. Floral hops again in the mouth, there it is quite sweet but with a little bitterness underneath, and a watery texture. Tropical fruits, kiwi and peach are also prominent with some spicy hints coming later. A touch of dryness in the finish. This is reasonable but definitely on the bland side.
