A low alcohol ("not more than 1% vol.") beer marketed as resembling a well hopped pale ale. To quote the label, "The name is derived from rhyming slang and is a tribute to the generations of hop pickers who enjoyed a 'working holiday'".
Ingredients listed as being: water, malt, sugar, flaked maize, hops, yeast, carbon dioxide and caramel colouring.
Sampled on 08/08/2011
Clear, dark chestnut brown amber with little or no head.
Malt loaf, fruit cake, cigar tobacco and dark honey.
Malt loaf with thinness and lack of alcohol saved by hop flavours.
Tobacco, caramel and caramelised dried fruit. The good news is at just 0.2 of a UK unit per 275ml bottle our nanny-like state approves on men drinking as much as 20 bottles of this bitter a day.
