Cask. Clear gold with white head.
Lightly perfumed hop aroma with some biscuit malt.
Tastes similar.
Good cask conditioned feel.
Easy to drink but is not the best collaboration with Yeastie Boys.

Hook Norton Brewery have teamed up with New Zealand based craft brewers the Yeastie Boys for their next brew – X Ale. Looking for a unique way to celebrate ten years of brewing, the Yeastie Boys approached ten breweries to work with on ten one-off and unique beers for their YeastieX project.
X Ale is a contemporary re-imagining of a 100 year old recipe with a dose of artistic license. Pale gold with aromas of zesty lime, satsuma and passion fruit and a dark fruit taste with a hint of spicy lemon zest.
