We’ve delved into the archives to brew one of Sean Franklin’s favourite recipes. Cream is a premium aromatic bitter that showcases the Liberty hop, which is from Washington State in the USA. Soft Yorkshire water creates a smooth bitterness, with a slightly citrus and spiced finish.

(Cask at King’s Arms, Bethnal Green, London, 23 Apr 2015) Golden amber colour with foamy, white head. Fruity, malty nose with peaches, citrus, tropical fruit and biscuits. Fruity, malty taste with notes of peaches, tropical fruit, biscuits and a gentle citric bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Well balanced and tasty. Quite nice.

Cask @ Baum, Rochdale. Golden-blonde with a creamy head. Has a nice light texture in the palate. There’s a hint of spice with a gentle fruitiness throughout, alongside some pale malts.

Cask at The Dean Swift, London. Pours clear gold with a small, white foam. Biscuity bread aroma, light toast. Medium sweet flavor, toasty biscuits, light straw, fine grass and hints of toasted sugar. Medium bodied with fine, soft carbonation. Sweet, faintly sticky finish, lightly toasted bread, some hay. Very easy, decent beer.

[Cask at GBBF 2004] An orange beer with a small white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of oranges - and so is the flavor, while the end is dry.
