Draft
Grapefruit, bitter lemon and a soft floral note rise from this 3.9% session ale, hopped with Calista, Lemon Drop and Mandarina Bavaria over barley, malt and wheat. Marble counts Draft among its classics and keeps it in the core range for slow days and long sessions. The brewery itself began in 1997 in the back room of the Marble Arch Inn, behind glass windows through which drinkers watched the beer being made. Vegan.
Tasting Notes

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
