M&S Single hopped Ales

[anthonyUK]

I was lucky enough to have three bottles bought for me on Father's day:

Citra
Halletau
Sovereign

Citra
This is brewed at the Oakham brewery in Cambridgeshire. This is a lovely IPA, crystal clear and has the distinctive citrussy grapefruit notes that makes this hop so popular.

Halletau Brewers Gold
This from the Crouch vale brewery in Essex. A golden ale with a lovely floral undertone. Very easy to drink and one that surprised me as I thought it may be my least favourite but it easily was up there with the other two.

Soveriegn
Brewed by Elgoods in Wisbech Cambridgeshire. This is an interesting Golden Ale. It is malty, slightly sweet with a noticeable caramel/vanilla flavour.
Very nice as a desert beer I'd imagine.

I've not tried the Cascade which is the last of the four varieties and there are boxes of 20 available for £40.

I've tried the Citra and the Cascade. Both very nice beers. The Citra being pretty much the Oakham one but slightly different ABV, i managed to find Oakham Citra for sale in my local B&M store for £1.59.
The Cascade Pale Ale was probably my favorite.
