Factotum
Factotum is the lighter of the two core pale ales from Salford, brewed with barley, oats and wheat and poured cloudy and pale yellow. Drinkers describe citrus first, grapefruit and tangerine, with gentler mango and tropical fruit, a hint of pine and a grassy edge over soft, biscuity malt. The body is slim but rounded for the strength, and the finish brings a light to moderate bitterness with lingering zest. The producer offers no tasting note of its own and simply calls it an everyday pale ale.
