duff (5403), Sydney, Australia, Surrey, England Mar 10, 2008 Bottle. A fantastic bitter i thought, very drinkable, soft and round, with a good balance of grainy malt and slightly earthy citric hops. Very soft mouthfeel, and balanced, which is very important for a bitter. I could drink a lot of this. Others probably won’t see too much in it, but i thought it was quite a nice one.
