A full-bodied sweet, malty brew. Darker in colour than your classic bitter. This beer has been brewed in and around Portsmouth for over 50 years.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and caramel and some elderflowers from the hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, cardboard, caramel, and some boring hops.

Cask gravity at SIBA BF, Paddock Wood. Copper colour thin beige head. Lots of dry, peppery hop. Just an outstanding bitter, just so hoppy, tasty, peppery hop. Like it’s been dry hopped. Biscuity, lovely assertive hops on finish. Balanced, tasty. Lovely.

500ml Bottle - Copper brown in colour. Sweetish hoppy aroma with tea,peach and some sweet and spicy malt notes. Slightly sweet taste with malt and a light but noticeable hop element with citrus notes and a hint of honey in the finish.
