COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
If Maris Otter malt is the body of our beer then hops are its spirit. Each year we choose our hops not just by farm but by individual garden and time of harvest. One older variety, Challenger, and one new,Boadicea,used as unprocessed whole leaf hops. Extravagant, perhaps, but delicious.

rubbishystuff (1202) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JUL 25, 2010
Nothing too complex, and a little thin and not really bursting with flavor but still good. This is more of a easy drinking session beer. The ale version of other countries everyday lager. Serving: Bottle

popery (1014) - San Francisco, California, USA - JUN 7, 2010
I wish that we had more good English bitters and milds sold in this country. This beer is pleasantly light with a clean, fresh flavor. It would make for an excellent session beer. It pours a bright, light orange with dark yellow highlights and a wonderfully creamy head. The aroma is lightly citric with an excellent light malt presence. While it’s very well-balanced, there is still a noticeable hop focus. The feel is soft and creamy with gentle bitterness. I imagine that it’s great from the cask. Of course, for all I know, this beer could be terrible compared to its competition in England.
