Y’alright? We think you will be with this authentic English Bitter brewed with all English ingredients. The original “session” ale (it’s history dates back 200 years!), a perfect mating of soft English malt proving a biscuit/cracker/mild toffee base combines with English hops that provide a tea-like blend of herbal Earl Grey, florals and delightfully earthy tones. At 4.2%, it’s made for times with mates or at home watching footie. Who’s shout is it this round?

Reviewed from notes.
Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: murky orange color with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: malty up front and flanked by some earthy to grassy hops; subtle tea scents, then an ever so slight touch of soapiness but even that seems fairly clean (makes me wonder if Singlecut did that on purpose)
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together in a bitter way; some of the tea scents seems to take on more of a sweet herbal taste here; then a mild aftertaste of grassy to herbal to earthy tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; moves fairly smooth along the tongue; finishes malty and herbal
Overall: yeah, I can see this as an English pale ale, I don't mind it for me but the kids these days won't care for this.

Copper colour and tiny head. Malty, a bit harsh aroma. Light-bodied. Malts, hay, nuttyness. Light and simple.
