A strong light ale with a wonderful citrus flavour which is both tasty and delightfully refreshing. Ideal for relaxing after a hard days night.

Cask handpull at The Welkin, JDW, Liverpool. Copper beer with lasting off white head. Nice. Bit perfumed. Bitter hop finish. I mean really bitter. Caramel on the aroma. Some creaminess in mouth and then really bitter finish. Yeah, it’s alright. Bit odd, but finish wins through
