Delicate and devilishly drinkable, this quintessentially Kentish ale lays the county's hallowed, herbaceous hops on a firm, biscuity bed of pale and crystal malt. Endowed with an inviting auburn-amber hue and a tantalising toffee-ish aroma, it's an enlivening English ale that, given its unassuming ABV, pleasures the palate with a remarkable fullness of flavour.

Bought from the local shop an a emergency trip to get cheese. Saw it and just fancied having it with lunch. It's a really simple bitter, but with lots of bitter hops and a good mouthfeel. A very reasonable lunchtime pint.

Cask. Amber dark with an unorthodox compact foam. Nose is malty, biscuits, earthy hops. Mouth is thin, watery, session-bitter with a malty tone.

From cask at The White Horse in Maldon with Terje 25.04.23. Clear dark golden. Bright white head and lacing. Aroma and taste of caramel, cinnamon and sweet malt. Quite forgettable.

A copper color, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has toffee, some wood, still fresh. Taste has grain, some caramel and wood, also some bitterness. Almost medium bodied. Fresh enough. Good beer.
