COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Seasonal - October to March.
NOTE; Although a beer branded Game On is available year round, and uses the same pump clip throughout, there are in fact two different versions made at different times of year.
Whether your game is football, rugby, cricket, tennis, golf or any other sport for that matter, this cask ale is perfect for any sporting event. The winter league Game On (available Oct - Mar) has a more robust feel and is auburn in colour, while the summer league version (available Apr-Sep) is lighter with a pale, golden colour.
