Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular.
Our award winning Barnsley Bitter is brewed using the finest quality Maris Otter malt and English hops. Chestnut in colour, having a well rounded, rich flavour, it retains a lasting bitter finish. Brewed using yeast strains used in the 1850's to brew 'Barnsley Bitter'.

Aroma is nutty and fruits off the yeast. Taste is similar with a bitter finish which doesnt suit the beer. I would guess that this is a brow ale.

Cask@Burton Summer Beer Festival, 2008. Brown beer with a toffee and hopped aroma, and a dry, toffee and hopped flavour. Overall a nice dry, hopped and toffee beer.

Cask at the Waggon & Horses (JDW), Alfreton. Hazy gold with a thin cream head; leafy hop aroma; fruity and caramel flavours with a balanced bitterness. An acceptable ordinary bitter.

Cask@GBBF2008. Amber colour, small white head. Aroma is mild coffee, roast and some wood. Flavour is wood, sour coffee with some mild hints of wood. Nice fruity and wooden bitterness in aftertaste.

Cask at GBBF 08. Hazy amber with an offwhite froth. Quite complex nose: fruit, toffee and chocolate. Good fruity bitterness. A bitter way above the average.
