Good hops, mild citric acidity to it. Nothing fancy, or mind blowing, just a solid good sessionable english bitter.

Bottle: Poured a medium clear amber color ale with a nice foamy head with some good retention. Aroma of biscuit malt is dominating with very little other attribute noticeable. Taste is also dominated by some biscuit malt with no discernable hops presence and some medium sweetness coming through. A bit too filtered for my liking but interesting nonetheless.

Bright, vibrant golden-amber colour. The aroma is caramelly, minerally with a light anglohoppy grassiness. On the palate it’s largely minerally (esp. chalky) with a light juicy maltiness and a firm hoppy finish. Quite dry. The lack of yeast, though, hampers would would otherwise be a fairly expressive example of English brewing. Then again, with the yeast it may not have survived to explore this coast...
