An English-style Pub Ale brewed exclusively with Valley Malt & East Kent Golding hops. Creamy & smooth, with subtle biscuity sweetness. Hints of bread, dark fruit & caramel. Undeniably sessionable.

On cask at Bluejacket in Washington, DC.

This looks excellent coming out of the cask, with a golden cascading body, and a nice white head.

This smells awesome – some light toasted breadiness, tea-like hops, a touch of citrus zest, and caramel.

This is an impeccable cask pour, so rich and full bodied for the lower ABV. The natural carbonation really props up the slightly fruity and very toasty malt character, with a touch of dried lemon or dried orange coming out on the end, as well.

This is creamy, rich, but ultimately super sessionable, with a great drinkability to it.

I can’t find much fault with this – it was an extremely enjoyable drinking experience.
