Dammit fonefan you’re a machine! I live in Macclesfield and you’ve rated it before me. Props mate. And to the other guy, dedication right there lads. Clear golden with a thin off white head. Aroma is difficult because I’m pissed, have a cold and my hands are covered in kebab. Some nice ops, bit of citrus. Flavour is clean and tasty, more nice hoppage, grapefruit, lemons. Had this in The Waters Green Tavern, Macclesfield. Typical type of beer Brian has on and this is better than most of them. Good work new brewery to me.
