Hog Island is a really exciting addition to the No.18 Yard Brewhouse collection. It is a refreshing, zesty beer which retains the malty character of the typical East Coast pale ale.
Originally brewed for the JDW Real ale festival March 2016.

Cask at the boot St Albans. A pale golden coloured pour with a fine off white head. Aroma is soapy, old dishwater, with some stale grassy hops. Flavour is composed of semi sweet stale malts, soapy, hint of lemon cif. Palate is medium light, highish chalky carbonation. Pretty shit overall.

Cask. Appearance is completely clear and golden, with a small off-white head. Aroma- fruity, citrus, hops, caramel hints. Taste is summery fruit, soft hop undertones, crisp clear finish. Refreshing.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol March 2016. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. Aroma of sweetish malts and a touch of citrus fruit, with a whiff of leafy hop. Flavour had sweetish, biscuity, malts, some more fruit and a moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Cask at the Monkโs Retreat, Reading. Deep gold with a loose off-white head and a light fizz. Maybe a bit thin. Orange and caramel with a very mild pine bitterness. Generally sweet though. Pretty average beer but pleasant enough.

On cask @ the Standing Order. Appearance - golden with a nice head. Nose - flowers and custard. Taste - more custard, with a light lemony edge. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly balanced finish. Overall - solid for the style.
