A copper coloured, full-bodied organic best bitter made with organically grown malted barley, and organic hops to give the distinctive fully hopped character. This Best Bitter has a sweet biscuit aroma and pleasing citrus hop flavours from the Sovereign, and First Gold hops. Soil Association accredited, organically grown Chariot malted barley is used to make the mash for this beer.

Cask at Lodge, Alsager. Pours “bitter brown” with a small scummy off-white head and excellent lacing. There’s rich tea biscuits and tangerines in the aroma. In the mouth it is quite sweet but with some underlying bitterness. Malts and floral hops dominate the flavour but there’s also caramel and hints of citrus and dried fruit. Traces of spice and herbs come through later as well. Finish is fruity and quite dry. This is a decent old school bitter.

Bottle from Waitrose. Clear copper coloured pour with decent looking off-white head. Biscuit, grain and grassy to hay aroma with a hint of spice. Taste of biscuit, bread, hint of Autumn fruit and quite a notable bitter herbal hop finish. Light+ bodied but has a certain slickness and soft carb, semi-drying. Good.
