Bottle conditioned (500ml brown bottle) session bitter, drank and reviewed Sunday 9th Jan 2011.

Poured into an 'Abbot Ale' glass tankard slowly, so as not to allow any sediment. I failed and a little got into my tankard, which means the body of the beer was contaminated with small 'yeast floaters' and the light brown body didn't look to great. My appearance score is low however because there was no head and the beer looked flat.

A pleasant hop/mild malty aroma, nothing strong or in your face, just a hint of what is to follow in the taste.

The beer may have looked flat but it certainly wasn't, the body was in fine condition and was a lovely brew, well balanced and flavoursome, a good mix of the hops and malts coming together to produce a fine Bitter.

At 3.6% ABV you are never going to get a rich heavy beer, having said that, this beer is a great example of a British session bitter and the depth of flavours often hidden within.
