It’s nice to have a full bodied light alcohol beer from Heavyweight. I’m not flying across the pond to London this summer but drinking this amber colored bitter with a slight head, floral aroma and full Fuggle flavor was the next best thing.

On cask at Mahar’s in Albany, NY. Was labeled as heavyweight bitter. Excellent cask beer, nice thick palate and bittersweet finish.

On cask at Andy’s. Orangey yellow in color with a nice tan fluffy head. Hoppy fruity aroma. Hoppy and malty flavor. Fruity notes. Well balanced. Hoppy finish. Very nice beer. Enjoyable.

Cask at you know where...Andy’s! Orange with a nice off-white head. Fruity hoppy aromas that are generally on the light side. Very nice explosive English Ale like flavors with plenty of hop flavor and bitterness with the carmel malt notes coming through for balance. Decent fruitiness. Definitely English hops. Hoppy finish. Very light and drinkable, yet full of flavor.
