One of our original recipes brewed since 1997, a pale ale with copious amounts of American Cascade hops. Wonderfully aromatic floral nose balanced by a gentle bitterness with a hint of sweetness. No wonder this beer has won the most awards of all the beers in our range.

Cask @ OT. Pours tiny hazy golden with a fluffy offwhite head that leaves some spotty trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is slightly malty and floral with freshly baked white bread, toasted cereal, honey, hay, dried yellow flowers, minerals and lemon peal. Taste is tiny sweet, bitter, tiny malty and slightly floral. Mouthfeel is soft, flat, round, slightly astringent and light to medium bodied. Finish is tiny sweet and bitter with white bread, roasted cereal, hay, minerals and lemon peal. Solid golden... Pleasant floral hop bite. --- Beer merged from original tick of Moondance on 19 Sep 2015 at 14:46 - Score: 6. Original review text: Cask

275ml bottle at 3.6%. It’s labelled as best bitter under the Moondance logo and artwork, however this is nothing short of an American Pale Ale. it’s very hoppy with loads of tropical fruit character. Light golden in colour with little head but a small bitterness.

On cask @ the Melville Inn, near Dalkeith, Edinburgh. Dark golden to amber with a decent head. The nose has malty biscuit with a faint hint of apple. More apple on the taste with still good malt profile. Medium bodied creamy fairly fresh on the palate with a big malt profile. A solid bitter.
