Description

A productive, brewery friendly, top cropper attributed to a historic London brewery whose lab once hosted Louis Pasteur. It drops fast and clear, and is clean and crisp at low temperatures with heightened esters and a lightly tart, dry finish at upper ranges. Try also British Ale II (OYL-007) for less attenuation and enhanced malts, or British VIII (OYL-016).
