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.

Cask at Nags Head, Covent Garden, London. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with citrusy notes of hops as well as notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel, leading to a slightly bitter finish. The mouthfeel is very smooth.

Cask, 3.8%. Hazy amber colour, small white head. Weak fruit flavour. Sigh.

Cask@Nags Head. Amber colour, mediumsized creamy head. Aroma is nuts, fruits, some very oaky hints. Flavour is wood, some earth, platics and mould. Not the most interesting one.

Cask handpull at Farriers Arms, St Albans. Copper gold with lasting off white head. A little dull and bland to start with, not much aroma, some hop in mouth and then more hop towards the finish. Distinct hop bitterness on finish.

A Sim rate (Cask at the Nags Head): Aroma is pleasant enough but almost non-existant; only slight hops. Golden brown ale appearance that is nothing special but it has decent lace which gives it a 3. Flavour is again subtle with malt and very delicate hops. Decent but nothing to write home about.
