A traditional beekeepers ale, pale yellow, a fruity bitter with an initial sweetness progressing to a complex dry hoppy taste based on an old nineteenth century recipe.Enville Ale is produced using 100% Maris Otter floor malted barley and top fermenting ale yeast. It is processed through an initial very rapid fermentation followed by a priming process using selected honeys which are specially processed (patent pending) and then allowed to secondary ferment before being lagered (stored at cold temperature) for a precise period of time. This process enables the brewery to produce conditioned beer with a controlled yeast count in cask - the result is a traditional cask conditioned beer in which the carbonation has been carefully controlled.

Cask at the Ale Rooms, Knowle. Poured a clear golden colour with an everlasting frothy white head. The aroma is malt and honey. The flavour is moderate sweet, light bitter, with a smooth, rich, herbal, sweet honey, light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Cask at Moon Under Water, Wolverhampton Pours a greenish yellow with a small white head. The nose is just vaguely lemony. In the mouth it is light and creamy featuring lemon and honey, but also with a hoppy undercurrent. Finish is sweet and hoppy. Nothing special.

Half-pint, well kept cask ale at Ancient Briton. Covering white head over a clear golden body, laces well. Moderate aroma of mid-sweet malts and mid-sweet fruity hops. Honeyed sweet malt-fruity flavours. Fresh bittersweet finish. Decent bitter. (Pen-y-Cae, Glamorgan 02.10.2018).

Cask, Gravity at the on site Festival Bar Shrewsbury Folk Festival, Sunday 23rd August 2014 Pours warm gold or perhaps edging towards a very light amber. Honey on the nose but not really in the mouth. A fairly traditional bitter, fruity, dry bitter with not too much sweetness at all, a pretty decent effort, tangy and pleasant. A7 A4 T6 P3 Ov13 3.4
