SMaSH IPA: Golding

Описание

Our first SMaSH IPA release for 2020 is a beauty! Up until now we’ve mainly focussed on Aussie and Kiwi hops, and have dabbled in US hops a few times. This time we’ve combined an English-style hop with traditional British floor malted Marris Otter to produce a somewhat bloody good British IPA!The Golding hop we used stems from the traditional East Kent Golding, and gives off English-style aromas of lavender and honey. Flavours are earthy and mildly bitter with a touch of sweetness, again reminiscent of honey. The Marris Otter malt in this beer has been floor malted, a tradition which spans hundreds of years. It provides a lovely body that we think is slightly bready and biscuity. Here’s cheers to the British tradition of beer!
