Bishop Nick Charter
Standard-Ordinary Bitter 4.4 º
Bishop Nick Charter is a refined Best Bitter that presents a distinctive ruby hue and a sophisticated profile driven by a trio of English hops. The sensory experience is led by bold aromas of blackcurrant and subtle earthy undertones, supported by a sturdy, biscuity malt foundation with hints of toasted caramel. On the palate, the interplay of warm spice and dark berry fruit provides a complex layer of flavor, balanced by a medium-high bitterness that remains clean and sessionable. This quintessential British ale concludes with a dry, lingering finish, emphasizing its refreshing character and traditional craftsmanship.
Appearance. Medium copper to deep ruby-red (SRM 14-16) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a moderate, creamy, off-white head that shows good retention and leaves light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate intensity with a prominent hop character featuring notes of blackcurrant, bramble fruit, and a touch of peppery warm spice. The malt profile is moderately low, offering scents of fresh biscuit, lightly toasted crust, and a faint hint of caramel. Low fruity esters are present, reminiscent of red apple.
Taste. Initial impression is of a clean, firm bitterness that quickly gives way to a complex hop flavor of blackcurrant and earthy spice. The malt base is supportive and bready, with biscuity nuances and a touch of toffee sweetness. Fermentation character is clean with moderate esters. The balance is decidedly bitter, leading into a dry, refreshing finish with a lingering spicy hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate, providing a lively but soft mouth-coating sensation. Alcohol warmth is negligible, maintaining its character as a highly drinkable session ale.
