Must be the black sheep of the Black Sheep Beer family, because it sure looked amber to me! Nose is caramelly malt with surprising banana and citrus notes I haven’t seen in British bitters before. Flavor shows 1) hop bitterness 2) maltiness and finishes with more hop bitterness.

Ok I have to admit that I bought it just for the name since I am a MP fan. I expected something average or even below that , but was pretty surpised. A decent good looking bitter. Crisp and malty. Balanced taste of fruit and spices. Very nice.
