Aroma: Tropical fruits, floral, grapefruit citrus
Taste: Tropical & Citrus fruits, spicy hop, crisp bitter linger
Malt: Pale Malt, Carapils, Amber
Hops: Simcoe, Citra, Centennial
Perfect with: Fish dishes with a creamy sauce will allow Yardbird to cleanse the palate and tingle your taste buds ready for the next yummy mouthful. Sweet and sour dishes pick up the fruitiness of the beer which would also work well with a tasty burger with fruity relish.
Additional Notes: Masses of hops are used in this fruity pale ale. Simcoe in the copper for robust bitterness and underlying resin hop. Citra and Centennial are added for Citrus and tropical fruit flavour and Simcoe is added twice more to give more citrus, pine resin and passion fruit. Even more Citra is added in the fermenter to increase the citrus and fruity fragrance. A good body and sweetness comes from the mix of three malts and this is balanced by a bold dry bitter linger.

Yardbird Pale Ale
Very smooth, not too happy! A perfect pale ale
This here is Charlie from just around….
A little quote there from the film ‘Bird’ about a Jazz Saxophonist. To which the name of this lovely ale gives a nod and a wink. I am not a huge drinker so 1 or 2 pints at a time, I find it keeps on satisfying when other beers start to bloat my stomach. My favourite.
Yardbird is a favourite
This is a crisp IPA with plenty of punch, especially as it's only 4%. Unusual to find one like this. It's a definite favourite in our house.
Charlie Yardbird Parker
A refreshing beer goes down well listening to the Yardbird !!
