Amber
Malty, toffee and biscuit aromas come with a prominent floral hop note, and the palate turns rich and bitter. Four hops (Challenger, Goldings, Fuggles and Savinjski Goldings) meet Maris Otter and crystal malt in this amber core-range beer at 4.4% ABV, from a family brewery founded in Blackburn in 1807.
