A pale, generously-hopped session beer. Hints of sweetness and a subtle elderflower aroma offer a terrific balance to the hops. A real thirstquencher!
Made with Challenger, East Kent Goldings, Pioneer, Mosaic and Styrian Goldings hops. Elderflower infusion

Cask at Lych Gate, Wolverhampton Agricultural nose – grass and leaves. Pours a clear golden yellow with persistent white head. In the mouth there is a lemony sweetness, with also grapefruit. But with biscuity undertones as well. Some hoppiness comes through at the finish. Quite quaffable.

Live rating: Cask at Southampton Arms, London on 28th September 2010. Light equity aroma, elderflower, wild berries and both citric and grassy hops in-mouth, and a developing grassiness in a finish that refreshes and quenches. Rather sophisticated. Gentle, easy light textured mouthfeel. Enjoyable pint.
