The first and arguably the most popular of Loose Cannon’s beers. ‘Bridge’ as it’s affectionately known always brings a smile to the face of its drinker with that delicious floral and slightly sweet finish. A fantastic session ale that covers a lot of bases for a wide range of people making it a popular choice for parties.

Copper coloured, traditional ‘bitter’. It kicks off with a good bitter bite, followed by plenty of flavour. A full and satisfying roundness.

Gravity dispense at Ascot Racecourse Beer Festival 2012 - 06/10/12. Clear chestnut brown with a thin off white head that soon bids a farewell! Caramel malt, toffee, subtle hints of mango and a little tropical fruit on the nose. Tastes of toffee, dark caramelised sugar, a little malt and some woodiness. Medium bodied leading to a bitter dry finish.

Cask, gravity, Wantage Beer Festival 19.11.10 Amber in colour without any head, save for a few stray bubbles dossing about like a couple of bored kids kicking a football in the street. Some streaky citrus, quite a bitter beer, biscuity maltiness good bitter bite. There is some tanginess, a dollop of fruit at the end, its nice. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.3
