A well-hopped and well balanced, brownish amber refreshing session beer. Refreshing, with light citrus hoppy notes and a fresh clean finish.

Bottle at home. A classic English session bitter and all the better for it. Lots of flavour for a nice low abv.

500ml bottle. Gushed a clear golden colour with a big frothy, short-lived white head. The aroma is toffee caramel malt, light fruit, light woody hop. The flavour is moderate sweet light bitter with a toffee caramel, light spice, woody hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Super for the ABV.

Cask at White Hart, Tongham. Herbal, floral, citrus aroma. Overuse of cleaning products on pub floor. Surprisingly attractive for a bitter: an opaque amber. Thick frothy white head. Medium bitter. A citrus bite. Malty tones lie beneath. Medium bodied. Thinnish. Flat carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. A decent bitter, but could have sworn it was something else when handed to me.
