Blasting off with a modern take on the classic Best Bitter, Orbiter harnesses American Amarillo hops alongside the classic East Kent Goldings variety for a citrus hit. Amber in colour, this super sessionable beer combines rich, malt character with full on fruit hoppiness. A stellar twist on tradition.

Cask-conditioned at the Old Fish Market, Bristol 17 April 2022. Deep amber in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. A malty beer, with some caramel, red berries, leafy hops and a moderately bitter finish. More Fullers than Dark Star, and pretty good.
