A traditional best bitter, but done the Moor way with extra flavour. Magic for beer drinkers!

660ml bottle [4.5% abv]. Clear dark orangey golden colour with average, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, pale off-white head. Herbal and piney hoppy aroma. Taste is initially dry, herbal and piney hoppy, becomes slightly watery, fades into a weak, dry finish. Promises more than it fulfills, concerning as well aroma compared to taste as well as the tasteโs starting impression compared to its progression.

660 ml bottle @ Christianssand Brygghus. Slightly unclear golden body with a nice off-white head. Aroma has malt, hops and biscuit, slightly fruity. Flavor is light malty, hint of caramel, grain some fruit and moderate bitterness. Medium body and aftertaste. Drinkable session ale/standard British bitter, but rather plain and one-dimensional.
