TomBone 3.7% PDF Print E-mail

ImageA brand new specially brewed beer by Facers in Flintshire at 3.7% abv brewed for Mad Ed's Hot Five's favourite Trombonist Dr Tom Rippeth for his birthday bash.

The pumpclip features Tom and his wonderful Trombone here in action at the Blue Bell Inn.

Happy Birthday Tom! No clues about his age but it's said to be the answer!

This special beer is made with Pale Ale malt (Optic) with Crystal malt at around 3% of malt grist, Goldings hops for bitterness and 1st Gold as late copper hops, with a generous dose of Crystal Hops added to the cask.

Should be nice'n'hoppy with a hint of orange/tangerine from the dry hops; but we shall see! (It's an art, not a science you know!).
