2 3.65/5.0 3.24/5.0 - NA English pint

Commercial Description:
An English pint shared with good friends was the inspiration for our cask conditioned Best Bitter. Dan flew in yeast from England and chose premium British Maris Otter Pale Malt to be balance the classic English Golding Hops from East Kent. You can expect to pour a lightly carbonated glass of rich amber ale, slightly cloudy and soft on the pallet with a pronounced dry hopped finish.

New Glarus is legit. Good job dan, the use of imported hops really makes this a class act bitter brew. I've never been to england to enjoy a brew, but if its anything like this one then I want one. I didn't even get this one off of the cask or off the tap.
