COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Special - March 2012.
First brewed in June ’11 as part of our U.S.A. single hop series, ’Simcoe’ is a dual purpose bittering/aroma hop bred by Yakima Chief Ranches and first released in 2000. Simcoe is a unique American hybrid. Although it is primarily a bittering hop, it gives a clean, pine-like aroma and taste with a slight hint of citrus. It is less astringent than other pine-like hops and has been highly sought after to make distinctive and unique Pale Ales and American Ales.

Prominent bitterness in the ale with subtle hints of fruit in a slightly less than full body.

imdownthepub (7461) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - JUL 16, 2011
Cask conditioned at Cloisters Bar, Edinburgh. Pale gold with white head. There is a pleasant light body to this, carrying a hop with a pine needle character, quite sharp with a hint of perfume and rose petal. Finishes with a bitter orange note. Pretty good.

Cask at Cloisters. A golden beer that didn’t make me think of urine at all. Decent white head. Super passionfruity nose. Flavours of passionfruit and mango. A little sweet and a bit dry. Sweet passionfruit hop linger. Lovely!

Cask at Cloisters. Clear piss yellow, good creamy head. Fresh lemon & peach nose. Sweet bread up front, more bitter fruit and a big soapy, oily bitter finish. Not bad, quite soapy.
