Commercial Description:
One of our biggest sellers, this naturally conditioned, copper colored English-style bitter is rich, full-bodied and flavored with a generous measure of Cascade and Willamette hops.

Washed out autumn leave orange. Sticky, off white foam. Slow but steady carbonation. Aroma of grass, light citrus and faint malts. Soft and mild with a playful crispness. Citric hops and a caramel toastyness start it out. Grassy bitterness and a touch of crystal sweetness. Medium body. Turns grassier and less citric as it warms. Alcohol is tasted as well, which is strange for such a low ABV brew. Finishes bitterly grassy and a touch spicy. Seems to be missing something, besides an R or two.

Decent color and head; fruity and hoppy, but also a bit sour, and the finish seemed off. Had at the pub; maybe the tap line was bad?

NIce cloudy orange color, slightly thin tasting after a while, but starts off fairly robust. A good one to gulp cold on a hot day.

Nicely hopped. This is one that you could easily toss many down.

CASK- tasty pale! pleasantly bitter, more full flavored than many pales, medium body, citrus flavors on the palate, and a dry finish.

English-style Bitter with small head and relatively low carbonation. Has a real ’homebrewed’ earthiness to it. Soft, somewhat rich, smooth and creamy. Def easy to drink as a session beer. Has kind of a slippery mouthfeel, if that makes sense. Decent dose of hops in the back end, but leaves behind a curious bitterness. Willamette seems to come through just fine, but it was difficult to discern the Cascade hops.
