Description
The year is 1993…

… and England have failed to qualify for the World Cup, 2 Unlimited are Top of the Pops with their dance smash No Limit, Shane Warne has bowled the ‘Ball of the Century’ and Rooster’s Brewing Co. has just hatched - forever changing the shape of beer in the UK. Originators and innovators of quality, new world pale ales, with an emphasis on flavour and aroma, our beers start to stand out and turn heads amongst a sea of brown beer, with Yankee (our flagship pale ale) leading the way.

Guest cask at the Wenlock Arms, London on 28th June 2009. Reddish black with a lasting white head. Slight yeastiness of aroma, soon malty with roastiness on a saline mouthfeel with a slight hint of salt and smoke. The slight saltiness is desirable and compels the drinker to ask for more. Very satisfying drink.

Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading. Amber with a thin white head; woody, herbal aroma; smooth texture with sweet vanilla flavours over a clean fresh bitterness, and a disappointingly short finish. Interesting.
