Golden bitter
Special/Best/Premium Bitter • All Grain • 20 L
A hit with the IBU's brew club!. A definate quaffer, but with good hop and malt character. Hops are all FWH. My most brewed style, and my best beers.

An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk.
