On 1st November 2015, Best Bitter was renamed Ringwood Razorback, to make it appeal to younger drinkers who don’t gravitate towards “bitters” by name; with the recipe and technique remaining unchanged. The name is a homage to the brewery symbol, the boar. Razorback is an American and Australian term for a wild boar.

Old rating - A 500ml bottle from the brewery shop last spring. Pours amber with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of caramel, light spice, sweet malt. Light body verging on the watery. Mild bitter finish. Disappointing.

Bottle at home. Gyengécske kis bitter, nagyon vékony, kissé olyan se íze, se bűze. Könnyen csúszik tho.

Bottle from a local Lidl. Aroma is malty with bland caramel toffee and bittering hops. Flavour is moderate sweet and fairly bitter. Body is light and watery. Meh, didn't like this one much, it's dreary.

Clear amber to red beer, big creamy off-white head, stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: very malty, metallic touch, some caramel, raisins, dried fruits. MF: soft carbon, medium to light body. Taste: soft bitterness, malty start, some caramel, more bitter, bit metallic, dry. Aftertaste: nice bitterness, a bit malty, hoppy, bit resinous, very decent.
