A Manchester bitter - this classic English style ale has had a revamp with some modern brewing techniques. We have introduced amarillo hops to a rich malty body and the results speak for themselves. Lovely and refreshing with a touch of something new.

Keg at Tilt, Bingo-Cotts Convention, 08/07/23. Hazed amber to marmalade orange with s light beige cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is dusty fruit rinds, straw, biscuit, toffee. Taste comprises brown bread, earthy fruits, biscuit, raisins. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light bitter edge. Okay ... I imagine Keg dispense isn't this beers best friend!

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours a beautiful red amber, medium transparent, with creamy whitish head. Aroma is medium malty, even a bit smoky. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is moderately sweet and gently bitter. Final is fairly dry. Overall, very pleasant and refreshing.

0,33 boks fra Utobeer Covent Garden, delt med skibsrederen mens vi brygger årets juleøl: nesten helt klar kobbergylden med højt og tett cremeskum som holder stilen til siste dråpe. Urter, våt barskog og engelsk appelsinmarmelade. Behagelig bitterhed i afslutningen. Mye å glede seg over i bare 4,4% (iflg etiketten - ikke 3,8).
