I had a micro(nano probably)brewed beer for lunch today. There's a hole in the wall place near work that is a sports pub called Charrans. They had their own ale so i tried it.I could tell for the first time that they used the same bittering hop(s) as SNPA and definitely had a cascade as the finishing hop, but not as much hop presence as SNPA. Pretty good beer, but I think it could benefit from a tiny bit more maltiness and a tad more finishing hops to get it really balanced and aromatic beer.Just a solid American Ale.Cheers,Rich

They don't brew it on site. I suspect that they farm it out and put their name on it, but next time I will ask.Cheers,Rich
