Description
Baron Brewing is a playground for beer, where no two batches are the same. Made for the fun and love of the process – the next beer will be the best beer.

The 1000L brewhouse allows for an ever-changing range of beers to be brewed. Each style will be pushed to its limits, with the evolution and development of new flavours.

Can from Beer Cave. Appearance - murky yellow with a foamy snow white head. Nose - apple, lemon and pineapple. Taste - apple, pineapple and resinous grassiness. Palate - light bodied, creamy middle and green hoppy bitterness on the end. Overall - good but will be better when the green hop burn has burnt off a bit.
