Description
2016 saw our founders set off on the beer research trip of a lifetime.

And on their return in 2017, they set up Double-Barrelled from a garage in Caversham. By the end of 2018, Double-Barrelled scaled up to a 24hl brewery and onsite taproom in Tilehurst, Reading.

Loose white head left a froth on murky golden coloured body.
Zest, earthy & hopped aroma.
Medium bodied, foamy with a cloying back.
Orange, oats, pineapple & mango tastes with a tropical fruit finish.
Nice.

Pilegrimsleden går alltid via The Rake i Borough Market, som bare var en "greasy spoon" når vi bodde der. Fra fat: uklar gylden med fint skum som varer til bunns. Citrusparade med ananas og syreblader i tillegg. God maltsmak for en lettøl, og fin bitterhet i avslutningen.
