Clean, crisp and perfectly balanced describes this classic bitter, crafted using pure mineral water and home grown ingredients. A traditional pale ale rich in malt, fruit and biscuit character, complemented by a satisfying bitter finish.

Firstly this is a bitter. Good blackcurrants profile. Nice usage of Bramling Cross. Lots of strawberries and blackcurrants Gd yeast esters

Cask @ Crosse Keys, Chester [220314] [From memory as notes lost]
Amber, clear, thin dense white head
Aroma of slight caramel, little on the nose
Taste of soft caramel, hint of biscuit, slight bitter hop, a bit bland
Palate - Fairly light body, light bitter, light sweet. Finish as main flavour, clean finish.
Overall - This was a disappointment considering itโs history as a great ale in the past. I tried a second half to re-rate and came to the same conclusion. Itโs made for clean, easy drinking, but comes across as rather bland....if I see this again iโll re-rate with a full pint

Cask @ The Glebe, Stoke. Syrupy gold with massive white head. Doesnโt quite clear. Aroma a bit weak for me, and slightly sulphurous. Taste is and sweet. Bitter/sour edges diminish slightly but do not overtake the sweetness in the finish. A good pint and a taste of history.
