Collaboration with Rivington Brewing Co.

Rivington are well known for brewing an amazing range of beers, so we have been very excited to create a new one with them! This is an American Brown Ale, beginning with the subtle malt complexities of the brown ale style, with caramel, chocolate and just a hint of nuttiness coming through, then using this as a canvas for the addition of pungent American hops. These bring citrus, pine and a light tropical character to the fore, complementing the malt bill perfectly and creating a harmoniously balanced beer.

L- Very deep copper, clear, 1Cm dark cream head.
S- Bright and aromatic.
T- A bit of conifer, fleeting medicinal, brief richness then notably dry hops building on the tongue tho not too far. After the first sip or two all those facets come in a blend on a foundation of moderately toasty deep malt.
F- It feels pretty big and pungent, it's well suited to winter, would stand up to pretty robust food. One for slow sipping for me as there is quite a lot going on! As I continue I notice more the hoppy-dry finish on the palate.
O- Nice, interesting to try as it's something a bit different and not a shouty statement of weird eccentricity. I am enjoying it but it might be a bit unorthodox and £ for me to buy again.
