Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular
Cambridge bitter is our main brand beer at an ABV of 3.8%. A mid brown bitter with a good balance of malt and hop character give apleasing session drink. The finest Pale Ale malt (made from Maris Otter barley)is blended with Torrefied Wheat, Invert Sugar and a small amount of roast barley to ensure consistent colour. Hops used are English Fuggles and Challenger, a blend that gives full hop character to the beer.
