I’m not sure why they call this style bitter, all the good examples I’ve had are never really bitter, go figger. Dark and friendly looking. Smell is rather malty. Initially I barely detect any co2 in there. The taste is is medium gentle mild with a ESB feel there fer sure. Reasonably good bitter that stands up with the best of the style I’ve tasted. Good overall friendly impressions. Well done and well balanced. Nice!
