Golden coloured bitter with a hoppy finish. A crisp refreshing bitter with a hint of honey.
The Brewery produces cask and bottled ales and the cask ales and bottled beers of the same name have a different taste. This is because the bottled beer has been bottled conditioned and is in contact with a greater percentage of yeast. It is a constant source of amazement how the same beer can have two entirely different flavours.
All of our bottled beers have a characteristic yeast flavour, not unlike some continental beers. The light coloured beers have a 'lager like' taste produced by using pale ale malt and because they sit on a slight yeast bed in the bottle.
Our own yeast gives these beers a special and distinctively refreshing taste.
The dark coloured beers are more rounded in flavour because the yeast character has been balanced by the smooth taste produced by the addition of chocolate malt.
A bit more about our bottle conditioned beers
Our cask ale is bottled and then kept for 3 weeks under constant temperature. This changes the character of the beer in the bottle. Two main changes occur ~ the production of natural CO2 in the bottle and the production of more yeast.
These maturation changes in the bottle bring about a very interesting range of bottled beers.
