Latin for 'forever upwards' and signified by the soaring Yorkshire Red Kite. Three times SIBA national champion and the strongest beer in our core range.

Tropical - Dry Hopped Pale

A classic pale ale, brewed from British pale malt and US Cascade hops. Smooth, fruity and full- bodied, with a deceptive bitterness to complement its alcohol strength. Refreshing citrus hop aromas complete the sensory pleasure.

Cask at Hops, Crewe. Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow with a small foamy almost white head and good lacing. There’s floral hops and melon in the aroma. In the mouth there is a brief burst of sweetness before it is swamped by bitterness of floral hops, along with marmalade and hints of alcoholic strength. Tropical fruits come through later as do traces of melon and mango. Finish is quite dry and bitter. This is decent.
