Finally got round to finding out some information about this ale that I enjoyed on our recent visit to Much Wenlock.The ale was on offer in all the pubs bar one in Much Wenlock, the exception only due to the lockdown restrictions and didn’t receive their original quota.
Brewed by Wye Valley Brewery.www.wyevalleybrewery.co.uk.First brewed in 1987 and has an alcohol content of 4% so very much a session ale.The brewery only started in 1987,so the HPA was a newish ale for the newly established brewery.In this period the general public were drinking more lagers than ales so the HPA came about to rival the lagers,so the brewery created a pale golden ale of its own.It is now Wye Valley Breweries best selling ale.
A citrus and floral hop aroma leads to a great quenching flavour on the palette, with hints of grapefruit and lime before a long refreshing finish.
Enjoying a pint of great beer
