English Pale Ale 4 º

Wylam Brewery

This cask Ordinary Bitter presents a luminous golden hue, offering a modern sensory twist on a traditional British session style. The signature super soft mouthfeel of cask conditioning perfectly carries a vibrant hop bouquet, where Citra, Nelson Sauvin, and Nectaron deliver bright layers of tropical stone fruit, crushed white grape, and zesty lime. A clean, bready malt foundation provides a well-rounded balance without overshadowing the fruit-forward character. Defined by a refreshing and light bitterness, the experience is exceptionally crisp and sessionable, culminating in a dry, clean finish that showcases the nuanced interplay between contemporary hops and classic English brewing texture.

Appearance. Pale amber to light copper (approx. 9 SRM) with a low, creamy, off-white head and good clarity; typical of a well-settled cask ale.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a bright hop profile of gooseberry, white wine, and citrus from the Nelson Sauvin and Citra additions. Low bready and biscuity malt complexity is present, alongside subtle fruity esters and a clean fermentation profile.

Taste. Initial bready malt sweetness is quickly met by moderate hop flavors of passionfruit and grapefruit. The bitterness is light and well-rounded, providing structure without being harsh. It finishes dry and clean with a lingering note of citrus peel and soft malt.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a notably soft and creamy texture due to the cask service. Low carbonation and no alcohol warmth, making for an extremely smooth and sessionable palate.
