Hand-pulled pint (as Farmers Ale) on 19th November 2021: Two Doors Inn, Skipton. Clean amber pour, white crown. Light floral nose, mini-citrus twist in the aroma too. The taste is a decent blend of maltiness and hop bitterness. Easy drinking Bitter all round.

9/11/2018. Cask at the 24th Watford Beer Festival, as Bradfield Farmers Ale. Pours clear amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, flowers and biscuit. Medium sweetness and light to moderate bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, soft carbonation. A little bland.

Cask. Old Crown, Handsworth, Sheffield. Clear, copper colour. Sparkler induced, creamy, off white head. Nose has nutty malts. Some dried fruit. Bit of a yeasty twang. Taste is mostly dry, and light, vine fruit bitter. Light body. Vinous finish. Well, it’s completely bland as you’d expect from a Bradfield beer, but it’s not badly brewed. It’s just brown.

On cask at the Yorkshire Bridge by Bamford. Appearance - deep amber to brown with orange chinks. Good head that sticks around. Nose - meaty, marmite and sweet malt. Taste - sweet malt and more savoury notes. Burnt malt finish. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a finish that could be fresher. Overall - a solid mild but not worth a revisit.

Mixture of nuts, caramel, and leafy hops to the taste buds. Bittersweet ending. Medium to thin bodied. Standard Brit bitter, more or less (York 11.07.2014).
