The beer matures and ripens, the live yeast working away to create carbonation and flavour. Brewers use ingredients which are fresh and natural, resulting in a drink that tastes natural and full of flavour. It is literally living as it continues to ferment in the cask, developing its flavour as it matures, ready to be poured. There is a real art to the production of cask beer, from selecting the correct yeast strain to the cellaring of beer in the pub. A skilfully brewed and lovingly looked after pint of cask beer is a wonderful thing. Cask beer is a quintessential British phenomenon and something we’re incredibly proud of as a UK craft brewer. Thornbridge started life as a cask brewery, cask Jaipur brought us our first awards, and we are bringing cask back to the forefront of our core range with our Year of Cask Beer 2018. 22 23 PEVEREL CRACKENDALE LIGHT AND QUAFFABLE FRUITY AND REFRESHING STYLE STYLE SINGLE HOPPED CITRA PALE SESSION IPA ABV ABV 5.2% 4.5% GOLDEN PALE OPAL FRUITS, CITRUS GRASSY, LEMON GRAPEFRUIT, BITTER, TROPICAL REFRESHING FRUIT TASTING NOTES TASTING NOTES A Session IPA brewed entirely with Mosaic hops from the A light pale ale with scents of opal fruits and a strong citrus USA!
