Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular. Also available bottle conditioned.
A deep, golden coloured beer created using three types of Optic malt and only progress hops, all grown within the UK. This single varietal ale has all the characteristics of this 'soft' hop: floral notes and a gentle but pervasive bitterness, making it a very drinkable and thirst quenching beer.

MIni keg. Deep, dark golden colour. Citric, grassy hoppy, juicy aroma. Floral hops in flavour and very mushy mouthfeel, that seems pretty big at this low abv level. Low bitterness, yet lingering flavour.

Bottle from Corks, Bristol. Deep gold co;our with a tight, off-white head and slight carbonation. Aroma of straw, floral hops and some chunky malt. Sweetish aroma, with some orange/baked bean flavours and a bitter finish. Not so good.

Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Peterborough BF. A golden coloured beer. The aroma is hoppy and there are citrus fruits. The taste is as above. There are some marmaladey flavours, but also a hint of worrying sourness.
