Cocker Hoop
Crisp and refreshing, with soft floral citrus aromas and a subtle, spicy bitterness behind a distinctive hoppy character. Cocker Hoop is a pale golden ale of 4.6 %, brewed with Maris Otter, wheat and oat malts for its crisp colour and deep head, and hopped with Goldings, UK Cascade and Celeia. The name goes back to cock-a-hoop, taking the cock from a barrel and placing it on the hoop, and nods to the River Cocker.
