From tap at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Aroma is grainy with noble hops, hint of fruits, light bready, bit grassy, and a touch of minerals. Flavour is above moderate biter with a dry finish. Body is light to medium. Simple but crisp drinkable ale.

Golden colour with lasting head and light carbonation. Aroma is very much true to the style of an English bitter. Very floral. Easy drinking and pleasantly bitter.

Light golden, bit of white foam. Lots of grain in the nose, drinks slightly bitter, grainy and still feels traditional. Drinkable, nice take on a classical style.
