Commercial Description:
Our justly famous best bitter, Blakeley's No.1 is based on a close blend of Phoenix hop bitterness and fruit, a combination which persists rewardingly without tiring the palate. Blakeley's No. 1 is uniquely flavourful for a 'best', deriving its character from the high levels of essential oils in its Cascade aroma hops - which also define its smooth, citrus finish. A handful of roasted barley in the grist provides a further finesse.

Cask Conditioned at O'Hanlons, Clerkenwell. Red brown colour with healthy head. Flowery hoppy beer, aromatic and lemony with long refreshing bitternss.

Cask, beautiful cask. No head to speak of. Deep pure brown colour. Hoppy and flowery on the nose. Moderate-heavy elderflower and hop tasting. Good long palate, leading to a very more’ish beer. If you were in a bullish mood it would make a great session beer. The Wenlock Arms sessions.

Typical english ale appearance with an alcohol hopped aroma, and watery hopped flavour. A plain beer to drink.

agree with both oakes and duff - peach flavours, and grapefruity tangy bitterness. very nice clear copper colour (although i’ve seen more copper beers than copper things - do the old 1 cent coins count?), with a good head for a cask beer, leaving nice white rings on me glass. big fresh floral smells as well. a quality bitter - clean but still complex.

Russet colour; earthy hops, moderately bitter. Touch of caramel, dried peaches, tobacco, fairly quenching finish, but it was a sunny August afternoon in London.

On tap at O’Hanleys, Clerkenwell, London. I actually liked this the best out of the O’Hanlons brews i tried. Very aromatic hops in the nose, with a nice burnt malt nose aswell. Heaps of roasty malt flavours, coupled with juicy, grapefruity, citric hops, pretty solid i think.
