Brakspear Bitter is a classic bitter with a dark amber colouring and a creamy off white head.
3.4% Vol make it a quaffable session ale, but it has a lot of complexity for its low strenght.
Fruity and floral on the nose, it has a hoppy underlying quality, that leads to a long and bitter finish.
I’m a big fan of this bitter.
