A patriotic ale with fruity notes and a biscuit malt finish. Refreshing and easy drinking with delicate spice and a satisfying bite.
We use three different malts; Pale Ale, Crystal and Amber, with two hops; W.G.V and Bramling Cross to brew this most English of ales.

500ml bottle (BBD Jul 2013) drank on St George’s Day 2013. Poured into a UK pint sleeve at home. Good amber body with a head that was both creamy in texture and colour. The nose was caramel sweet and so was the taste, it did however have a drier semi-hop finish to it. Body-depth was average; would have liked a bit more umph to be honest. I liked it: my sweet tooth is a sucker for caramel induced malty brews!

50cl bottle from Tesco, Stevenage. An accidental 2500th rating - I’m away from home, so the the Fuller’s Vintage Ale I was saving will have to wait for the next significant milestone.
Pours deep amber with a tight cream head; malty aroma. soft in texture but with an astringent malty flavour; and an earthy finish with some herbal hops. Very pleasant.
