Name: Chestwick Bitter
Origin: England
Style: Ale/English Bitter (3.5%)
Appearance: A clear, dark yellow and golden brown ale, this English ale was poured from the tap producing a nice, soft head, that was small but had a great life span.
Taste: This ale has an intensely hoppy (floral) aroma. It begins sweet, with some notes of honey and caramel but quickly becomes strongly floral and bitter. The hops in this beer are the driving factor in this beers overall flavour. The aftertaste is hoppy, bitter and long lived.
Mouth Feel: A soft, light bodied ale. Like most English beers it was served at slightly below room temperature as this tends to allow the hop flavours to shine through more.
Final Thoughts (4.5 out of 5): Of every beer I tried during my travels in Ireland and London, this was hands down the best beer I had. Best of all I was easily able to recreate a similar beer in my home brewing. I love sessionable English Bitters.
Not far from the Tower of London was the pub I got to try this fantastic English ale.
