By far our most popular ale. An aroma of pale malt and hops introduces you to a beautifully hoppy bitter beer, despite the predominant hop character, malt is also evident, fresh and clean tasting.

[On gravity cask at beer festival at The Retreat, Reading] Mid brown coloured. Deep malty, yeasty, earthy, almost eggy homebrew flavours which somehow made me feel slightly ill and reminded me of Wells Bombadier. Really didn’t enjoy this one, but I can see that some might.

Cask gravity at Battersea Beer Festival 2006. Copper/red colour with bubbly off white head. Some minerality. Bit of yeast/farty aroma. Some caramel. Pleasant enought but could do with some more hop flavour for me. OK bitter.
