Commercial Description:
Available filtered and pasteurised in bottles and cans.
NOTE: Only ratings for the bottled vesrion should be entered here. The cask version has a separate listing.

Full-bodied with complex fruit flavours, Bishops Finger is a strong premium cask-conditioned ale brewed to a traditional Kentish recipe. What’s behind the name? Well, a Bishops Finger is an unusual finger-shaped signpost still found in Kent, which once pointed pilgrims on their way to Canterbury. Only the finest malted barley, Kent hops and fresh water from our own artesian well are used in the production of one of Britain’s best-loved ales, which is also exported in bottles to more than 30 countries worldwide.

Pours light brown with a thin white head. Smells earthy with some rosey hints. Tastes slightly spicy with touches of sweet malt. Decent.

Bravi bravi mi piace: Shepherd Neame si conferma un produttore molto onesto, e anche la sua Bishop’s Finger è stata capace di allietarmi la serata, farmi digerire e mettermi un bel sorrisone. Buono l’aroma molto floreale, buono il sapore con dignitosa presenza di luppolo; sì sì, mi va mi va... spero di poter assaggiare (con disimpegno) anche le altre: sono l’ideale per le serate in cui sto a casa e ho voglia di bere bene e tranquillo.

Bottle 0.5 l. At a bar in Copenhagen - Noerrebro (don’t remember the name). Golden copper-brown colour with small beige head. Aroma allright malt and hops. Taste a bit spicy - bitterness as it should be. Nothin surprising. Wouldn’t lead me to Canterbury.

Toffeish-malty aroma is woody with some nuts and grassy hoppiness. Toffeish malts, wood, nuts, fruits and grassy hops in flavor. Dry finish and moderate bitterness.
