Malty and fruity aroma with a satisfying flavour and bitter finish, Cambridge Bitter is the main brand beer at an ABV of 3.8%.
A mild brown bitter with a good balance of malt and hop character give a pleasing session drink. The finest pale ale malt (made from Maris Otter barley) is blended with torrified wheat, invert sugar and a small amount of roast barley, to ensure consistent colour.
Hops used are English Fuggles and challenger, a blend that gives a full hop character to the beer.

Red shiney beer with very little aroma. The flavour is hopped with a slightly watery and fruity undertone. Overall pleasant.

Sampled cask conditioned at Oliver Twist, Stockholm.
Pale nut brown. Ashy aroma. Light bodied, very dry. Fruity and astringent. Mildly roasty with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Salty and very bitter finish. Very flavourful for it's gravity, but not all that interesting.
