[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading] My first beer from this brewery pours an attractive solid yellow gold with a moderate white head & middling fizz. There’s lots of hops here- an explosion of different flavours when the beer hits your tongue. There’s pine, melon, salt and seaweed, kiwi, lime and grapefruit. There’s lots of fruitiness, but defintiely a big hit of a rocky Cornish bay on a warm day - an unusual impression for a beer from a landlocked county! This is really good - an exciting, unusual beer that’s complex and stuffed full of flavour with a tingly mouth-puckering dryness and bitterness in the finish. A bold assertion of where British brewing is now at, which really needs a more modern, vibrant pump clip to draw attention to it. Well done - are all Lymestone’s beers this good? If so, I want more!

Pale golden with a thick creamy head. It is well hopped with this character perhaps more evident in its body and tastes than its aroma. It’s also very light and crisp making it easy to drink although has a dry finish.
