| Hogan Sampling |  | 13 Jun 2026 | 5th beer of this festival: Some head and lacing but not lasting and presented as clear as a bell despite being described as hazy on this golden hued Nottinghamshire wheat beer brewed just off the Great North Road in the village of Cromwell, near Newark, and founded in 2004. A dry hoppy first hit with hints of wild, summer berries and a subtle breadiness. A hoppiness prevailing with just the merest hint of a sweet raspberry. Lots of continental-style wheat malt mixed with pale barley malt aiding its soft mouthfeel. A mildly fruited outflow from its fresh wild raspberries added to the brewing process to extract their natural oils and authentic fruit sugars. A lingering hoppy dryness from the use of traditional, mild European hop varieties selected for low bitterness and so as not to compete with the beer’s fruit flavours. Served in top form with good conditioning. |
