Bitter Now Than Never

◎ Appearance

Amber-gold in color with good clarity and a firm, creamy head that maintains steady lacing down the glass. The carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, presenting a clean, inviting visual profile typical of the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with soft toasted bread and biscuit notes, underpinned by a gentle earthy character from East Kent Goldings. A subtle caramel sweetness and light spice round out the aromatic profile, creating an approachable and balanced first impression.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a rounded malt foundation of biscuit and toasted grain, followed by a pleasant 28 IBU bitterness that sits comfortably in the mid-palate without overwhelming. The earthy, gently spicy hop character and a hint of caramel provide complexity while maintaining excellent drinkability throughout.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with the malt-forward character lingering pleasantly without harshness. A subtle earthy-spicy note from the hops fades gradually, leaving the palate refreshed and ready for the next sip.
