COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask and bottle conditioned; Special
As our showcase for hops it would be remiss of us not to use this beer to show off some of the finest hops anywhere. East Kent Goldings give this a delicate hop aroma, sticky spice and grassy flavours which give way to a light, persistent bitterness and a soft tangerine finish. Light malt base lets the hop dazzzle and takes you straight to the hop gardens
