Track - Sonoma AF Pale Ale
This is the Manchester brewery's 0.5% ABV version of their leaded Sonoma pale ale and is offered up in a 440 ml can. The beer is vegan and contains barley, oats and wheat as well as Citra and Mosaic hops. The beer goes flat quite quickly and leaves little lacework down the glass. The aroma is assertively floral and quite bitter in character. Tastewise there is a heady combination of flavours: at once tropical, citrussy, grassy and resinous. A moderate and clean mouthfeel ends with a hoppy and crisp finish. Maybe a touch more body could have been present but it is still a very worthwhile AF version of Sonoma.
