Gamekeeper has all the traditional traits of a Yorkshire Best Bitter with a modern edge. Rich copper in colour with malty and slightly biscuity flavours; Magnum hops give a subtle hoppy finish. After a long day on the moors, this is just the job! (aka Coverdale Game Keeper)

Bottle. Light caramel malt and light hops aroma. Clear medium amber color with minimal head. Sweet toffee malt and medium citric hops flavor. Finishes a bit light. An easy drinking beer but on the light side.

Cask (@ Watermill, Ings): Deep golden, smaller persistent white head; fruity nose with a light vinous touch, hops in the second row; mild to moderate bitter-sweet flavour; mild as well - fruity-hoppy finish. Unspectacular brew...
