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. One older variety, Challenger, and one new,Boadicea,used as unprocessed whole leaf hops. Extravagant, perhaps, but delicious.

Bottle from the brewery online shop. Pours clear amber with a thin white head. Aromas are slightly metallic, some red fruit. Taste is light caramel, light nuts, light fruit. That metallic note lingers a bit though.

Bottle. Copper colour, frothy head that does not stay long, no lacing. Aroma is caramel, a bit of herbal hops. Light bitterness, no sweetness. Soft carbonation, medium body. Rather boring.

Bottle at home from the Wine Society. A deep burnished copper in the glass and a low head with plenty of lacing. This was all about the biscuity malt flavour and texture that just put a smile on my face. A proper session bitter with some bitter hops, but they were correctly kept to a minimum to let that beautiful malt shine. When a brewery gets a bitter just right, (like this) then it is something to be celebrated.
