Let the sunshine dance on your tongue with Hooky’s golden summer ale

Don’t drink lager – relax with a great Hook Norton beer - Haymaker

Be cool this summer with Hook Norton’s seasonal beer for July - Haymaker.

Haymaker, at 5 per cent ABV, is a clear, golden, summer ale, with a refreshing aroma and taste. Brewed from a blend of Maris Otter Pale Ale and Cara pils malts and a mix of Fuggles, Goldings and Challenger hops, you can almost scent meadow flowers on the nose.

Haymaker is light and easy drinking - it is very much a summer ale. Hook Norton managing Director James Clarke says Haymaker is a distinctive pale ale and tastes like sunshine dancing on the tongue.

“When poured, Haymaker has a tantalising effervescence and a wonderful taste.

“The quality and depth of its taste makes it an ideal accompaniment to food,” he said
