The Watermans in Totnes was chosen to launch our beer of the festival. The beer was brewed for us by John Norish at Teignmouth Brewery, it's a 4.2% amber bitter called Totnes Pale Ale. About fifteen members plus John Norish and landlord Rob Wheeler gathered on Friday 6 June for an initial tasting.

Brewed with Cascade - Nelson Savine and Rakau, taste notes: pleasant, pale with tropical & sweet melon tones
