Borefts Beer Festival IV. Day 2 (warm up tasting in Jan & Charlotte’s room). Light haze on this amber beer, tidy off white head. Light dry palate, crispy. Usual English bitter fayre - some orange in the bitter hops. Inoffensive but do we really need another bland English Bitter adding to the vast masses we already have?

Cask: Light amber to amber coloured, smaller stable creamy head, sticking to the glass; delicate hoppy nose with toasty and fruity flavours; light to moderate bitter-flavour, light bodied; lingering fruity and bitter-hoppy finish with a tinge of liquorice. Not earthshaking, but a good session beer.....
