A traditional, easy drinking Yorkshire Bitter, made from all British ingredients. Pale copper in colour, this beer initially has sweet malt and honey on the palate, followed by a moderately bitter finish. The delicate hop aromas can be described as floral and spicy.

Initially brewed at Riverhead as Riverhead Butterley Bitter, since 2021 brewed at Ossett under their own brand, with the same recipe.

Hand-pulled half-pint in The Station Hotel, Oakengates on 2nd Aug 2021. Clear and clean golden amber body, white topping. Nice easy going Bitter, good balance with a pleasant malty base for the hops to play with; nothing too strong, but nothing bland either. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Butterley Bitter on 05 Aug 2021 at 07:04 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.5.

Leeds Beer Festival 2017. Golden ale. There’s some toffee notes that are slightly more stated, and linger longer in its taste than aroma.
