From the micro-brewery of Lymestone Brewery, Stone, Staffordshire (founded 2008 by Ian Bradford, formerly head brewer at the award winning Titanic Brewery in nearby Stoke-on-Trent) their first beer out and now staple 'Foundation Stone' brew is a glorious golden pale ale crafted from the finest pale and crystal malts. Faint biscuit and chewy, juicy citrus fruits burst onto the palate then spicy Boadicea and Pilot hops pepper the taste buds leaving a pleasing long and dry bitter finish.

Notes - A magical experience and a true example of the historical context and brewing techniques associated with this small market town that extends back in time for almost a 1000 years. With tasty stuff like this it is very tempting to quickly move on from the first couple of pints – but at this premium strength you should be careful you don’t start rocking too much.
This beer pairs with Indian cuisine, pepper cheese or blue cheese and fish.
