COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Regular. Also available bottled.
Pale lager style bitter with fruity refreshing hops.
This is a cricketing term used to describe a short delivery which is not especially fast, making it easy for the batsman to hit because he has plenty of time to observe the speed and direction of the ball after the bounce and choose his shot accordingly. We also liked the association with the beer, and the hops we use in this beer are Goldings and Cascade.

On cask at the 2012 NWAF, Manchester. Pours a very yellow colour with a fair white head. Aroma of caramel, barley, lemon and grassy hops. A lemon flavour upfront with caramel, grass and barley again. Mild carbonation and an oily mouth-feel.

Very hoppy on the nose and similar hoppiness in its taste, but a delightful one.
