COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Special.
The very first beer out of our new brewery. Launched 19 September 2005, this is a golden beer, light maltiness leads to a citrus bitterness & hop flavours. Get it while you can - a one-off brew, and we have already sold-out.

chriso (7065) - London, - SEP 30, 2005
Cask (gravity dispense), St Albans Beer Festival 2005. The first beer from the newly reopened Buntingford brewery. Not really very golden - more a light bronzy copper colour. If he’s trying to make a crisp, refreshing, golden ale, the brewer would do well to steer clear of the sweaty sock and diacetyl aroma. To be fair, I noticed this on a number of other beers I tried so it could be down to the conditioning rather than the beer itself. Things perked up considerably on the palate. The beer was indeed fresh, crisp and thirst quenching. Some lemony citrous. Very dry indeed.
