Ramsbury Gold

We have come across the Ramsbury Brewery before - refer back to May 22 if you missed it.

Ramsbury Gold is, as its name suggests, a golden ale. Its rich golden colour is produced by blending pale optic malt, crystal malt and torrified wheat (for those of you that don't know, this is pregelatinized wheat that is used in brewing as a cereal adjunct. The torrified kernels give a higher yield and a more trouble-free brew than conventional raw wheat, and also increased foam and longer head retention). Golding and Styrian Golding hops are used to give a distinctive light hoppy aroma and taste to the beer. Its ABV is 4.5%.

Oh, and by the way it is very tasty indeed!
