COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask: Special - 2010
A simple pale golden ale. All pale malt, from North Norfolk and Warminster; no colour malts. Hopped with Apollo, Bravo and Citra, with the Citra in dry hop; hence the ABC... Simple hop additions, nothing complicated. as easy as ABC. (Brewed for the British Guild of Beer Writers, Pre-GBBF - Aug 2 event)

Full-on Citra aroma and packed with hop taste. The low alcohol innevitably produces a lack of some body but is compensated by the long finish from the hops. A very successful low abv beer.

Hand pulled cask at brew pub. Straw yellow with a lively white head, in knock your socks off fresh condition. What a cracking session ale. By far the most complex hop profile I can remember trying at this meagre strength. Absolutely stunning!

A lovely low ABV beer, packed with hop flavour and aroma, without being unbalanced. Peachy and citrusy. Loved it.

Cask@Brew Wharf. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is lots of fruity hops, some mild floral notes as well as some herbal and mildly spicy notes. Flavour is fruity, wooden and a bit earthy as well. Rather pleasantly balanced.

13th August 2010. On tap at Brew Wharf. A pint and a half courtesy of Ang (reakt) and brewer Phil. Very much appreciate the pint Phil - especially after the kicking I gave ’Three Lions’! Clear gold beer - suddy white head. Light hops on the nose. Light clean palate. Immediate fresh hops - grassy, piney and some grapefruit. Minerals and then a hoppy finish and aftertaste. A great flavour for it’s abv. Could well imagine drinking a few pints of this in the sunshine without any worries of getting too heady.

Get in there, first rate. Many thanks to Ang for the information. Consumed on tap with Alex and his friends at Brew Wharf, 5th August 2010. A low abv session beer, pale copper gold colour, grapefruit, mango, summer fruits, great bitterness levels, exceptional drinkability, not at all gassy, oily, a little carbanation and just a great balanced summer bitter. BrewWharf taking on Crouch Vale here??? Suspect this will develop as it was very fresh on tap.
