COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This beer has good assertive pithy bitterness with a malty backbone and a lemon and lime aroma. Brewed with some Pale Ale malt, Crystal malt, Munich and some Wheat malt. We use Columbus and Chinook hops and a new hop called Citra, responsible for adding great lime flavours.

At dba bk cask fest. Dark yellow clear with fully lasting soapy head. Aroma and flavors of citrus, light fruit, biscuit. Taste is quite bitter but in balance worth long pithy end. Soft then dry. Quite refreshing and comforting.

Nice honest to goodness beer. Pours golden. Smells citrus with the hopps smell smashing through your nostrils as the under current. Tastes firm with slight fruity notes and caramel with a nice bitter cut off. Goes down well.
