A classic British Bitter, brewed by the Freeminer Brewery in the Royal Forest of Dean and made with malted barley, from the Warminster Maltings in Wiltshire, the oldest working malting house in the country. Goldings and Fuggles hops combine to furnish the beer with a satisfying bitterness and delightful, hopped finish. Perfect with casseroles, steaks and red-meat pies.

Christmas Eve 2012: sharing a few bottles at home with dad. This 500ml offering had a BBD of 1 Jun 2013. Pale amber body with a white head that didn’t excite. Malts just about push the hops into second place throught the tasting: malty nose, malty flavours and a malty finish, all with a hop undertone that kept below the surface but stopped the beer becoming sweet or too malty. A tad on the watery and thin side body wise, but an OK beer when you consider it has been brewed for a supermarket chain.

500ml bottle. Amber with a thin white head; slightly musty malt aroma; a pleasant toasty malt flavour; and some gentle bitterness and caramel to finish. Not very exciting.
