The low alcohol version of Harvey's flagship beer Sussex Best Bitter. A superbly balanced bitter with prominent character from four hop varieties.
A light, malt forward and refreshing beer, produced identically to its parent product (with the alcohol removed prior to bottling)

Bottle shared at Garbage Night II - London. Picked up at the Royal Oak. Pours crystal clear gold with a flimsy white foam head. Light papery malts in the aroma, hints of caramel and bread. Light sweet flavor, very bland and watery with further caramel, papery bread, faint veggies. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Bland finish with subtle papery malt sweetness, minimal bitterness. Eh, it is what it is.

Schöne bernsteinbraune Farbe im Glas, angenehm süßlich-malziger Geruch. Der Antrunk ist frisch hopfenbetont, die alkoholfreie Note kommt durch, passt aber irgendwie gut zu der angenehmen Malznote und der angenehmen Herbe, die sich durch den Mittelteil bis weit in den Nachgeschmack zieht. Der Hauptteil ist nicht so körperlos wie erwartet, sondern ausgewogen Malzig mit ganz leichter Säuerlichkeit, dazu die beschriebene Herbe. Alles in Allem ein echt leckeres (fast) alkoholfreies Bier. Vielen Dank an Sean für diese Flasche!!

Bottle, max 1%. Sweet malt syrup aroma. Clear amber colour. Good hoppiness in flavour, some cinnamon. Does not really taste low alcohol except for some breadiness.

275ml bottle from the brewery shop, Lewes. Not a lot of condition, some butter on aroma. Diacetyl seems to affect a lot of the beers I bought from the brewery shop. It’s a bitter with no alcohol. The rest of the beer is fine.
