On tap at the Olde Stone. A really nice, clean taste with a crisp citrusy finish. An excellent bitter.

On tap at the Olde Stone. Not too bad of an attempt at an English Bitter. Nose was rich in hops and barley. I knew what to expect next. A nice rush of bitter hops attacked the palate with a prominent taste in barley and bread. Not too bad of a brew.
