Tiger

Everards Brewery
United Kingdom·Best Bitter
Tap to rate

Toffee depth meets delicately spiced hops in this 4.2% copper ale, with sweetness and bitterness in balance. Crystal malt rounds off the toffee character, Maris Otter forms the malt base, and Fuggles, Goldings and Challenger bring the hops. Speciality malts and British hops do the work, and the striped Tiger can earned its own bronze for design and packaging.
