Description
Let’s raise a glass and toast the way it should be - local beer brewed by local beer lovers using local ingredients, including fresh water from our very own Hertfordshire borehole.

No fuss, no pretension - just passion and a year’s hard work at our nearby farm to brew ales we, and hopefully the people of St. Albans, can be proud of.

Here’s to radically better beer!

Bottle at home. Aroma is wet grass, mineral and some biscuity malt. Aroma becomes somewhat soapy later on. Flavour is crisp light malts, more mineral. Some citrus lemon and metalic bitterness. Some lager like notes. Finish is nice a dry. Palate is light and a touch thin. So so.
