Cask at The Hop Pole, Aylesbury. Clear golden. Doughy wort aroma. Sweet and light bodied with rounded mouthfeel. Hay and doughy malt, low-medium bitterness. Strangely worty.

Cask, gravity at Aylesbury Brewhouse, The Hop Pole, Aylesbury, Bucks Pours pale golden, with a light smattering of white bubbles. I understand that the hops used are Tettnang, so a hop that is German if my memory serves me correct and therefore more probably prevalent in a lager style beer I guess. However hops can be quite versatile and it seems to work pretty well here, providing a reasonably clean tasting, crisp beer. Aroma is quite simple, hard pushed to pick much out, but in the mouth the beer is clean tasting, with quite a dryness throughout in fact its a pretty decent effort for a 3.8% beer and I would happily sup a pint or two of this. Only had a smallish taster, but pleased with the first from this new brewery. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5
