A beer derived from years of practice searching for the perfect pint, of course hoping secretly that you never actually find it! In other words, a pint suited to the taste- buds of our head brewer that can be savoured several times in one session without feeling like the bottom has fallen out of your world (or vice-versa!). Golden, hoppy, clean on the palate and leaving a long lingering after-taste that will haunt you until you quest for more.

Cask at the Carpenters Arms, Tourist Town Zentrum, 29/12/15. Clear golden with a well appointed off white covering that retains well. Nose is pale malt, light caramel, straw, bready, a touch thin. Taste comprises grain, faint citrus, paper, grass. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Looks and feels good ... nothing on offer at the business end .. scroll past.

Leeds Beer Festival 2015. Has a malty bitterness and its hops are evident too. Itβs lighter tasting but not thin.

Golden with a dull haze. Fresh orangey aroma with tropical fruit accents. A bit watery, with some earthy hops. Vaguely orangey in the finish.

Cloudy golden with a lasting white head. Grainy malt aroma with straw, biscuit and herbs. Dry and rather boring malt flavour
