Pennine Brewing Co – Hair of the Dog

What they say: “A bright sparkling blonde with a delicate roasted caramel flavour and a smooth sweet refreshing aftertaste.”

The ‘blonde’ bit nearly put me off, but in the interests of research – and I liked the name. I liked the taste too, though not my usual style of ale it was enjoyable. 3.9% A.B.V.
