We’ve gone back to our roots for this one and brewed a classic English bitter. We want to celebrate those traditions with this beer, so we ferment it in our open top tanks with a fruity, top-cropping English yeast. All the hops are British, but we’ve used modern varieties Endeavour and Olicana to contribute fruity flavours. This style of beer isn’t a showy scene-stealer, and nor should it be. It’s a beer brewed to accompany conversation and laughter - and this is the first time it's been in can!

Cask ale, half pint at Smithfield Market Tavern (Blackjack). Shared with Finn. Filmy layer over a clear dark amber body, laces quite well. Inviting on the nose with leafy hops and mid-sweet malts. Fine blended taste profile with mild caramel malts, nuts, and leafy hops. Rounded bittersweet tail. Like it. (Manchester, 21.03.2024).
