COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Seasonal - Summer.
A light, dry, but refreshing Summer pint. Brewed to give a crisp hop flavour and aftertaste and a light golden colour. An ideal lunchtime drink.

Cask Conditioned at Hook Norton Beer Fest 04. Yellow gold colour wih no head, hazed, unsettled. A big problem with this festival, the beers were not in great condition mostly and this suffered more than mast. Yeasty, dry beer with particles, could detect some lemony hop and I’m guessing it would be a decent pint under normal circumstances.
