Late Hopped Traditional Bitter. This bottle conditioned ale portrays all that is best about the traditional British bitter - hoppy bitterness on the palate and the nose is married with the full body of the beer. If Maris Otter malt is the body of our beer then hops are its spirit. Each year we choose our hops not just by farm but by individual garden and time of harvest. Hop variety Challenger is used as unprocessed whole leaf hops. Extravagant, perhaps, but delicious.

Draught. Vinous aroma. Copper colour, small white creamy head. Creamy, citric fruity flavour. Aftertaste is a little watery with OK bitterness.

(Bottle 50 cl) Clear, pale amber colour with a fine, creamy head. Nice, hoppy, floral nose. Rather light in body with weak notes of nuts and roasted malt. Weak, bitter finish. Surprisingly high carbonation. 240705

Yellowish-copper color, small white head, fleeting. Very clear. Aroma of light yeast and malt, bit of mustiness. Very soft on the palate, with notes of buttercream and a low hops apparency. Medium-light body. Some odd/off yeasty, bready flavors in there.
