Barsham Brewery Eastern Gold 4.5% — 500ml

A golden ale that came out of a kitchen rather than a lab — created with David, head chef at the Eight Bells, which explains why it's built around flavour balance rather than chasing the biggest hop hit going. Deep gold in the glass with a tropical, softly citrus nose. The flavour is fuller and longer than the colour suggests, with enough malt underneath to keep everything sitting square. Easy to drink, harder to put down. Tasting notes: Tropical fruit, mild citrus hop aroma, full and long on the palate ABV: 4.5% Style: English golden ale Brewed: West Barsham Estate, North Norfolk — estate-grown Maris Otter barley, water from the brewery's own borehole Suits: Roast chicken, sharp cheddar, a Saturday afternoon with nothing booked in Gluten free and vegan friendly.
