Holgate White Ale

Without wishing to be too old-fashioned, chauvinistic and all-round Ocker about it, a Holgate brewer did suggest to Crafty that, of their two summer seasonals - the other being the mash-hopped Road Trip IPA - this was the one "for the ladies". The latest version of their Belgian witbier-inspired White Ale comes with the addition of coriander and whole Valencia oranges into the boil to give a little citrus and spice boost to the fruity esters already gained from the yeast. It's on tap at the Woodend Brewhouse throughout summer - or at least until it runs out.
