Velocity (alc. 4.4% vol) is a traditional English bitter with a fresh flavour at the lower end of the bitterness scale. We add a handful of the ruinously expensive German Hallertauer hops just before the beer is fermented and the result has excellent aroma and just a hint of an old fashioned marmalade.

Christmas gift from relatives who live near Steyning. Atoms is a mix of caramel, veg and sour berries, with a good dose of malts. Light chestnut. Attractive thick foamy light beige head. Light bitter before developing in strength along with some sourness. Malty as to be expected but with a woody almost liquorice element. Some pepperiness. Thin. Watery. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long finish. Wasn't expecting too much (aroma doesn't help) but it did have a spark of life to it.

Not retired! 500ml bottle (best before Sept 2018). Pours a murky brown with high fine carbonation. Big frothy head. Patchy lacing. Sweet malt nose. Medium body, sweet taste. Bitter finish with grassy herbal notes. Nice fruity bitter

Bradford Beer Festival 2015. Clear copper coloured with a glow. It has a sticky-sweet texture and taste with hints of toffee in both aroma and taste.

Cask gravity at Pigs Ear BF 08. Attractive chestnut colour with thin bubbly beige head. Some diacetyl, some butter, some nuttiness. Just pretty awful. Ugh.
