Summer Lightning
5.0% Golden Ale / Blond Ale
A trendsetter in the brewing industry; the original Summer ale brewed all year round. An extremely pleasant bitter, straw coloured beer with a terrific fresh, hoppy aroma. This, coupled with an intense bitterness, leads to an excellent long, dry finish. Probably the beer to receive the most awards in Britain!

Still a decent drink. Same details as before. An enjoyable drink and a good session ale, even at the ABV, but steady on there, people, as it's very quaffable.

Dry, crispy, bitter, fresh and balanced. Nice citrusy and malty taste. Also some grass.
