You're always guaranteed a good ale from Allendale Brewery and Golden Plover is no exception, in fact it's an award winning golden ale and it's easy to see why when you experience it.
It's like summer in a glass with a golden straw coloured ale and excitable bubbles giving a lava lamp appearance. The loose frothy white head is disappointingly small and disappears to a thin foam but it leaves surprising lacing on the glass,
There is no mistaking the citrus aroma from this one! The bitter citrus is mixed with sour hops and something rather herby and floral to give an unusual aroma that is very appealing. All of these wonderful aromas transfer into the taste and are perfectly blended to leave an explosion in the mouth of citrus, floral, hops and malt flavours. There is a subtle bitter aftertaste to round off the perfect experience. Softly carbonated, it has a moderate to thin body which, after all, is not unexpected in a golden ale.
Surprisingly delicious, I expected an overpowering taste of citrus but I was very pleasantly surprised with the blend of flavours. Golden Plover is a very crisp and dry ale that is so pleasant and moreish that Ale Be Seeing it Again.
