The Drunk Hop

Brewery: Brønhër Brew
Supplier: Beer52

Couldn't find much about this apart from the fact that it is brewed at the Cervezas Cuenca in Cuenca, Spain. This is their pale lager, of about three different brews. I served this chilled.
Appearance: A crystal clear pale straw colour with a medium white head colour. 
Aroma: Loads of hop resin and a little rose on the nose. 
Flavour: Hop resin and candied orange on the front, with some light malt notes on the back.
Body: Light and crisp, but with a little too much 
Aftertaste: Similar notes as that of the main flavour but with a little more focus on the malt and a little more hoppy bitterness. 

Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 7, close to an 8 if it wasn't for the carbonation.

Price Range: Another from the box that had 8 for £14 - so £1.75 for a 330ml bottle; a great price for great beer.

Food Pairings: A starch, something like pasta, with a medley of roasted mediterranean veg.
