Rising Giant
A triple-hopped American pale ale: citrus fruit and blackcurrant lead the hoppy aroma, the taste turns zesty and fruity, and a robust bitterness runs into a dry finish. Willamette and Cascade are among the hops, all sourced from the US. Long Man brews it at Church Farm in Litlington, in the South Downs National Park.
