Commercial Description:
Our Pride and Joy: This is our flagship “Bitter” that has less emphasis on bitter and more on fresh Oregon USA Cascade hop aroma. We achieve this by adding the hops in three stages by hand. Available in limited quantities as we hold back Posh Pooch and carefully mature it in the casks twice as long as our other ales to ensure the perfect pint. Yes, it takes longer to make and is more work, but pride is what we brew. Posh Pooch is available all year long in very select establishments and direct from the brewery in 5 litre mini casks and bottles.

Bottle from Quaffs. Hazy amber with a thin white head. Sappy, orangey hop aroma with soapy tropical fruit notes and even some ginger. Taste is much the same with some subtle underlying malt and a long bitter hop finish. The American influence is apparent, it’s almost like a milder Hercules Double IPA. Once again the only gripe is the thin body but a solid brew none the less. A good UK, USA combo...

Bottle. It pours a clear, golden-orange, quite pale body with a small, white head. Grapefruit-sourish nose, slightly artificial. Seems like it might be going bad. Grapefruit, generic fruityness, caramel and some bitterness in the mouth. Flavor feels a bit artificial too. Thin body, sourish and dry, almost papery mouthfeel. Grapefruit-sour and hoppy bitter finish. Strange one. Good? In a way. Bad? In a way. (080829)

Bottle. Amber colour with a white head. Aroma is hop, fruit, malt, grapefruit. Flavour is hop, malt, caramel. There were a wrong flavour in the beer for me that i can´t define.

Cask gravity at SIBA BF, Paddock Wood. Hazy gold, lasting white head. Obvious citrus grapefruit hop aroma. It’s got a lot of citrus. Earthy hop. Very earthy beer.
