Cliff Quay Bitter
Cliff Quay Bitter is a classic mid amber English bitter of 3.4% from the core range. English First Gold and Slovenian Celeia give it a fruity hop aroma, and a small addition of black malt rounds out the flavour and leaves a hint of dryness. Malt carries a full-bodied palate. The beer has been brewed since the Ipswich years, is poured on cask and is sold in bottle at the brewery shop.
