A traditional English bitter brewed using water from the Hampshire chalk hills. Full and clean tasting, initially malty then tangerine fruit and resinous hop build to a quenching bitter finish.

[Cask at GBBF 2004] A light brown beer with a small disappearing head. The aroma is sweet malty, and so is the flavor, but in the flavor there’s also some spices - but I can’t pick them out.
