Our best bitter. Refreshing with a nice aftertaste and easy on the palate. Made with wheat to give that full bodied feel. Undertones of blackberries and spice and all things nice.

GBBF Day 1. Cask. Hazy gold beer with a few white bubbles failing to forn a head. Palate is light and dry with mild fine carbonation. Smooth dry malts bring mild honey.sweetness. Light marmalade with a whisper of something citric. Light dry finish. Okay.
