Barden is a fantastic example of the classic English pale ale style. The base is all Norfolk Malt with liberal additions of East Kent Goldings hops, which bring flavours of fresh lemongrass, spice and dashes of honey. This beer is bottle conditioned, allowing it to be as close as possible to enjoying a pint in a Great British pub!
