Bottle, branded Pitfield Bitter. Hazy amber with a good lacing head, but lots of sediment. Interesting earthy aroma. Toffee flavours with solid floral hop btterness. Earthy. Light bodied. A bitter above the average.

These guys make a bewildering variety of beers! OK session bitter, lots of hops on top of full flavour malt. Somehow it does not feel wholly balanced.

Cask handpull at The Wenlock Arms, London. Badged as Pitfield Bitter. Amber, lasting bubbly beige head. Competent session bitter. Some hop, yeast, caramel aroma. Great hop kicks in mouth, with bitterness on end, citrus earthy hop. Ticks all the boxes

Cask. Mild floral aroma. Amber color with an off-white head. Medium body with light carbonation. Rather fruity flavors - suggests rhubarb - just comes to mind - as one of the components. Finish is light stone fruity with enough floral bitter to balance. Nice to drink.

Bottle. Cloudy orange/brown with an off-white head. Aromas are sweet toffee and caramel with spicy hops and some yeast. Flavours are sweet caramel malts followed earthy, dry hops. Has some burnt notes with some fruitiness. Bitter on the finish. Pretty tasty for its alcohol level.

Bottle. Glazed, syrupy, frosty looking orange/amber beer with a fizzy head. The aroma is lightly fruity and the flavour is watery and slightly dry. Overall a disappointing beer.
