Hazy golden colour with a thin head. Floral and citrus aromas and flavours.
Hywel Davies –
Not normally a pale ale drinker. But this one is decent. Light in colour, good frothy head. One of the better pale ales I’ve had.
Amanda Vinson –
Light and hopy with a good amount of bitterness.
WJ –
Interesting flavour that tends very much towards citrus but not sour like lemon with hints of sweetness. Nicely hopped and quite light.
Peter Jones –
Excellent summer beer, fruity and hoppy, very refreshing straight from the fridge. Happy to recommend this excellent pale ale in the American style.
