COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask, Seasonal;
Our current seasonal beer is Abbeydale Winter 5.2%. A strong pale ale made with a combination of two New Zealand hops to give a full flavoured pale beer. Hop flavours predominate with berry fruits, earthy and grassy flavours all present. The finish is long-lasting and bitter leaving an overall impression of crispness alongside warming alcohol.

DruncanVeasey (5136) - NUNEATON, Blue Square Prem, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - JAN 9, 2011
Cask handpull, The Crown, Nuneaton. Orange gold looks, foamy white top. Sexy armpit and mango aroma. Drinks like breakfast juice; grapefruit and mandarin, lime over a solid sweet malt cashew base. Near perfect pre-match entertainment..

hughie (3992) - Bedford, Bedfordshire, ENGLAND - DEC 17, 2010
Cask at The Green Man, Stamford, Lincolnshire. Pale gold. Aroma is citric, mainly grapefruit. Gentle, non-threatening grapefruit taste. Some bitterness. Easy drinking ale, though one dimensional. Incidentally what exactly makes it wintery?

imdownthepub (7461) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - DEC 11, 2010
Cask conditioned at Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford. Pale gold with white head. Straight in to a dry hopped cornucopia with this, dry apricot fruitiness, leafy, just a hint of malty sweetness, then grassy flavours. Really very nice and very drinkable. Liked it.
