Bottle from Sainsbury's and drunk at home. Clear pale brown colour lasting white head. Decent enough bitter. Certainly it seems British brewers are using more hops. Their presence is much more obvious. It has some malt, some distinctive white pepper hops on the finish. I thought very decent. Very drinikable.

Bottle from Waitrose. Clear chestnut/dark amber with a small off-white top. Malt aroma with hint of toffee. Flavour has more profile with light roasted malt, toffee, wild berries, pear, tingly grassy hops. Bittersweet and slightly rich for a best bitter. What it lacks in session quality it makes up for in flavour. I like it.
