COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Regular.
Our latest ale is inspired from over 180 years of brewing at The Whole Hop Brewery. Styrian Goldings added to English Fuggle hops achieve a refreshingly well-balanced combination. The subtle biscuity flavour comes from pale ale and amber malts. Mixed with the citrus flavours of these hops, this creates a light and refreshing ale that all generations of ale drinkers will enjoy.

I got this from real ale tap. Taste has mild bitterness, in general I’d call this as mellow beer, perhaps even sleepy. The taste does not last too long. Overall a bit boring.
