A tawny red strong bitter with a malt and fruit aroma, brewed with Goldings hops and Maris Otter malted barley. Brewed especially for the festive season, this warming ale has a full-bodied soft finish.

Cask at Moon under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours a dark copper with a small foamy off-white head and good lacing. Malts are to the fore in the aroma, along with some traces of autumn fruitd. In the mouth it starts off smooth with sweet malts before becoming fairly bitter with traditional hops and hints of ginger. Fruitiness returns in the finish. This is a pretty solid beer – but I would call it a “red ale” not a best bitter.

Many thanks for this Bitter Ale to Jacek Wigier (wineofdreams@gmail.com) Piwo slabe no poza ladna etykieta w stylu mrocznym nic się tu nie dzieje, goryczka jak na bitter umiarkowana, pecherzykowa drobna malenka piana miedziana barwa, w aromacie jakies sztuczne olejki dodawane do ciast, w smaku jak tran lub inny tłuszcz rybi, z jakims lawendowym posmakiem. Mi to nie pasowalo wogole.

23/4/2020. Sample courtesy of the SHIG, cheers! Pours clear pale amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, fruit and marmalade. Moderate sweetness and bitterness. Slight oily and watery texture. Odd tang to finish. Pretty ordinary Mauldon’s beer.

Bottle: Poured a amber opaque with a white frothy head. Aroma out of the bottle is light skunk and sweet malts. Taste is bitter forward with a lot of toffee and sugary caramel malts.
