The first house-beer tasted by half-pint at the brewpub, Hand in Hand, Brighton, on 28/06/06.
A: clear, dark tawny hue, fluffy white beer head, low carbonation--all looks well for a southern Bitter.
S: slightly like mildest Mild, with a little black-sugary edge of roast and dry malts, backed by a faint tinge of traditional English hoppyness.
T: bitter-sweet toffeeish maltiness comes before Fuggles-hop's chewy and earthy flavour; a slightly sour fruitiness from malts as well as a long-lasting, dryish roasty edge of light-roasted malts and roast fully-fermented tea leaves prevails at the back... leading towards an interesting, tangy bitter and dryish finish, really like a cross b/w a dry-hopped Bitter and a dryish-roasty Mild.
M&D: the body is slightly too thin and the texture slightly watery, but this is an intriguing take on Bitter all the same.
