Headland Red
A mellow, malty ruby-red beer at 4.3%: toasted malts with hints of chocolate and dark treacle, a smooth flavour, then notes of black tea and cedar. It is one of the cask classics of the brewery's Wolds farm, vegan friendly, and brewed with water that comes untreated from the farm's own borehole in the chalk.
