Commercial Description:
Available cold filtered in 500ml bottles. Occasionally available in the cask.
"Iron Horse is a strong pale ale hand crafted at the beer station from a complex grist of roasted malts and English hops. This gives a full flavour with a traditional Sussex hoppy nose to the beer."

Cask at the Claret Free House in Croydon on 21/11/2009. Copper coloured with whitish head. Spicy and hoppy with a lot of fruit and the flavour of a sweet variety of Orval. A zingy mouthfeel and a long hoppy finish.

Bottle. Nice looking clear amber with a slim off-white head. Floral hops and fruit in the aroma. Taste is malty, fruity with a (very) late and long hoppy bitter finish. Medium bodied: very drinkable; good stuff.

A good pale ale that is somewhat lighter and more drinkable than some alternatives.

Bottle, picked up at the Dodgy Deli’, Cowley Rd, Oxford, 15-09-06. Amber, with small white head, some malt on the aroma, good body and very tasty, really enjoyed this beer, some fruits and malt shine through but with a nice flourish of hops at the finish.

Bottled. Amber, bright and clean. This beer had exceptional balance. The malts and hops worked perfectly together. Smooth malts come across first but are supported well by a good solid bitter structure. The length on the palate is fantastic.

Bottled, 500ml, filtered. Darkish amber with white head. This was quite a fruity beer on a slightly heavy malt. There is something akin to malt bread about the background, raisins and yeast, with just a touch of hop coming in late. There was a slightly sour tang as I got through the glass, but nothing off putting. On the whole it was fine, just a couple of things holding it back.
