Young’s Bitter (3.7% ABV)

Young's have been brewing award winning beer since 1831, bursting with taste, Young's Bitter is an easy to drink, refreshing cask ale with a fresh, fruity aroma that leaves a long, satisfying bitter finish. It is traditionally brewed to deliver a clean taste and is light and dry in flavour with a subtle taste of hops. Young’s is brewed by methods unchanged for generations to modern standards, using only the highest quality traditional ingredients.
100% malt brew: Maris Otter and crystal malt with Fuggle and Golding hops.

Wells Bombardier Bitter (4.3% ABV)
As most lovers of cask ale know, water is the most important ingredient in beer, and Wells Bombardier has an enviable natural advantage over other premium bitters; it is uniquely brewed using natural mineral water from an independently accredited source - our own well. Wells Bombardier uses only the most flavoursome part of the rippest, hand sampled English 'Challenger' and 'Goldings' hops to guarantee a delicious sultana fruit taste and a wonderful, spicy aroma. More malt is used per pint than other premium bitters and our English 'Crystal' malt is carefully crushed, not ground, to deliver the rich flavour and deep copper colour for which Wells Bombardier is renowned.

Courage Directors Bitter (4.8% ABV)
Courage Directors Bitter is a Top 5 Premium Cask Ale. It is a genuine premium ale, pale brown in appearance with a deep rich taste. As part of the Courage family with has over 200 years of brewing pedigree, Courage Directors Bitter was originally brewed exclusively for the Directors of the Alton Brewery and not for public sale.
