COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask, occasional;
Bushcraft is a full flavoured light copper coloured session bitter. We’ve added plenty of rye and wheat to the mash, which gives it a slight dryness on the palate. The Pilot and Bramling Cross hops used in the boil work together to give a nice bitter edge with notes of lemon and blackcurrant in the finish.

Leighton (3590) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JAN 8, 2012
Cask at CBC, London. Pours clear amber with a white foam head. Like a light amber ale in character. Some lightly toasted malts, light pine. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish with mild pine bitterness, toasted malts, faint caramel. Very decent.

imdownthepub (7131) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - DEC 3, 2011
Cask conditioned at The Craft Beer Co. Clerkenwell, London. Copper with white head. I had an initial burnt caramel note, some toffee, but in a good way, not overly sweet. There followed a drying leafy bitterness with a citric hop, lasting and really quite decent.

ladnewton (858) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JAN 2, 2011
Cask at the Wenlock Arms, London on 29th December 2010. Copper with thin foam. Malty aroma then rather bitter in-mouth; back-of-mouth bitterness and grapefruit notes, before a lingering bittersweet aftertaste. Light mouthfeel.

downender (4186) - Bristol, Gloucestershire, ENGLAND - OCT 8, 2009
Cask-conditioned at the Watershed Cafe, Bristol 8/10/09. Copper coloured with a tight white head. Aroma of red fruits, cereals and fruity hops. Flavour began with a tocuh of sweetness, hedgerow fruit and a touch of citrus before a dry finish. Good.
