With all the glow of a midsummer sunrise, this popular golden ale is a thirst quenching and complex beer with a truly broad appeal. Lightly bitter, subtly floral, and buzzing with zesty citrus, soft fruits and spices – it benefits greatly from the Cascade hop from which it takes it’s name.

Cask, handpump at The Chequers, Little Gransden, Cambs, home of the ’Son of Sid Brewery’ Poured mid amber with a slim white head, good clarity and nicley citric. This possibly suffered a little from being consumed after the ’Son of Sid’ Chopper as the hops were still being tasted from that one but it was a very good beer all the same. Sweet honey and good juiciness with a gentle fizzing bitterness struggling to make much of an impact. Likeable and thoroughly decent beer, but I’ll return to the Chopper next. A6 A4 F7 P3 Ov13 3.3

Half pint handpulled at Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford. Clear golden-brown body under a filmy layer with bubbles. Light citric aroma alongside fine flavours of fresh floral hops. Easy going session drink (16.03.2008).

[Bottled] Clear golden, rich head. Citric, grapefruity hop aroma. Medium dry with clean, rounded mouthfeel and light to medium body. Fairly hoppy and lightly dusty. Salty finish with good bitterness.
