Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular. Also available in pasteurised bottle.
This premium bitter has a distinctly malty character with a hint of nuttiness. The enhanced hopping rate recreates for many the good old days of a true Yorkshire bitter. Stallion gained the coveted award of Champion Beer at the 1994 York Festival.

Cask on Christian IV in Odense. Amber with a lasting white head. Light floral hops and toffee malt aroma. Medium dry malty flavour with toffee notes and a rather hop bitter finish.

From cask at Charlies. Pours cloudy orange with a lacing off-white head. Light toasted to breadish dry malt aroma. Flavour follows this with a mild fruity note in addition. Light liqourice note into the finish. Finish holds a light bitterness yet still mixed with the same malt flavours. Very pleasent biter.

Cask in Station Bar. This was noteably warm. Artoma is nutty malts, grassy, clishgt lemon note. Taste is again nutty a bit grainy malt, grassy finish.

Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Amber. Bland malty aroma. Some roast in the taste with some sharp bitterness at the finish. I find I don’t get on too well with Hambleton beers. This is an exception. Quite decent.

Bottle. Amber with a moderate white head. Aroma began with some floral hops and then became a touch earthy. The flavour started with some malt before the same earthiness, almost farmyard-like came through. The finish was bitter with some more floral hops. Pleasant.
