Lighter in colour than our previous bitters, but still characterful and complex, The Golden Bitter brings together two fine English hops; Ernest and Endeavour. Sweet malt and dried figs are accompanied by a touch of pine and spice on the nose.

The fruit follows through onto the palate, with the soft, biscuity malt base developing towards the finish. Rounded out with a gentle bitterness, The Golden Bitter is the perfect balance between traditional English brewing and contemporary hop development

44cl can from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours amber, medium hazy, with fine foam. Aroma is malty. Body is average, like carbonation. Taste is medium bitter, with some sweetness too. Final is average. Overall, the beer felt rather good when colder, and worse once a little warmer.
