Cellar Head Brewing Co - Strangs#7 - Pale

Cellar Head - Strangs #7 Single Hop Pale - 4.4%abv - 500ml Bottle
 
The most popular core beer that sums up the passion at Cellar Head.  This pale ale perfectly showcases the quality and diversity of British and internationally grown hops and their unique characteristics. Maris Otter and Vienna give the light malt base to our regularly changing beer.
 
STRANGS #7
This hop is the worst kept secret! Cellar Head have won green hop awards with it every year and we LOVE it!  This exclusive experimental and, as yet unnamed, variety from Ian Strang's Kent hop farm on the National Trust Estate just along the road from the brewery at Scotney Castle, has aromas of orange fruit and coconut and is truly unique.
 
Malts:  Maris Otter, Vienna
Hops:  Changes regularly. 
 
Vegan Friendly 
 
Cellar Head produces cask conditioned and bottle conditioned natural, unfined beer.  Traditionally, fining agents are used to produce perfectly clear beer using Isinglass, a substance obtained from the dried swim bladders of fish. Yes, fish!  But as well as helping the yeast to settle to the bottom of the cask/bottle, the finings also take hop oils with it, thereby stripping some of the flavour and aromas - something we of course want to avoid.  By choosing not to add finings to our beers, they carry a natural haze and are also vegan friendly.  Additionally they do not filter or pasteurise their beers to get the most flavour out of the brews.
