Gold Gluten Free (4.4% ABV, bottle)
Deep, clear gold (of course) with a white head, it has an aroma or sweet malt with a herbal note. On the palate, well, it takes pretty much like traditional Butcombe Gold to me, a great session bitter. Well balanced, with bready malt, floral bitter hops, and a hint of spice.
Buy it: I was sent mine by the brewery. It’s available on the Butcombe website.

Goram IPA (5% ABV, bottle)
Light amber, with an off-white heads that stays well, this has an inviting spicy hop aroma with some bready malt in there, too. It’s will made and beautifully balanced. The malt’s quite bready, the body full and satisfying. The hops I find quite understated, peachy with a spicy edge, all leading to a nice bitter finish Loving this!
