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.

UPDATED: JUL 22, 2009 Handpulled cask at the Farriers Arms, St. Albans. Copper with an off white head. A little dull and bland to start with some hop in mouth and then more hop towards the finish. A bit unintergrated.

chimplechamp (579) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAY 29, 2008
cask at the bon accord- pours golden yellow, more yellow than golden. lots of lacing, thinnish foamy head. nose is a bit spicy cinnamon, apples. biscuit. taste is slightly too sweet for me, with a dry hop finish, tastes like the ale version of kronenberg.
