This triple hopped amber bitter, as in a classic Burton Ale, is well rounded with a dry finish.

Cask @ Burnaby Arms, Bedford. Light golden and clear, thin white head. Sulphurous Burton-y aroma with a hint of orange peel. Taste is bitter with a sweet kick. Sulphur still pervades. Bitter, slightly sour aftertaste. Thin mouthfeel. Competent if derivative, pleasant but not delicious.
