Julius is a citrus-inspired Summer Ale, full of Thornbridge grown herbs including Tahitian Lime Leaves, Lemon Balm, Lemongrass, Mint and Coriander seeds. Light and lemony on the nose with a hint of spice and honey. Biscuit characters dominate the mouth, with a hint of ginger and a soft mouthfeel. The finish is lightly bitter, a little dry and wonderfully thirst quenching.

Dark golden with a lasting white head. Aroma of roses, spice, especially anise and coriander. Dry and spicy flavour with a wooden note. A little too spicy for my taste.

Fruity, spicy taste with orange, dried apricots and spicy hints of lavender and ginger. Some spicy bitterness in the finish. Light body, balanced sweetness.

Cask@The White Horse Slightly hazy amber color, small white head. Fruity peach nose with some toffee and raisins. Flavor is different: it has nutty hops and cardamon in it. Palate is a bit weak, smooth mouthfeel. Ok session ale.
