Silver King
Silver King is a straw-coloured pale ale made from a single extra pale malt and the American hops Cascade and Chinook. It smells of citrus fruit, mainly grapefruit and lemon peel, with a faint piney, resinous note behind it. The palate is crisp and dry with very little malt sweetness, and the bitterness is firm but balanced, leaving a clean, refreshing finish. It is one of the brewery's original recipes and has been in the range for more than 25 years.
