Kirkstall Brewery Bitter
Standard-Ordinary Bitter 3.8 º
This Kirkstall Brewery Bitter is a quintessential Ordinary Bitter, delivering an exceptionally sessionable experience. The sensory profile is anchored by a prominent Amber malt backbone, providing a foundation of toasted biscuit and nutty warmth. East Kent Goldings hops contribute a delicate layer of floral and earthy notes, specifically evoking a subtle forest fruit character mentioned by the brewer. A thirst-quenching, firm bitterness provides structure, leading into a crisp and refreshing finish. It strikes a classic British balance between bready malt complexity and the characteristic orchard-and-berry esters of a characterful yeast, making for a remarkably drinkable pint.
Appearance. Pale amber to light copper (8–14 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Features a low to moderate off-white head with fair retention and light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate malt intensity featuring toasted bread, biscuit, and light nutty notes. The East Kent Goldings hops provide a distinctive earthy and floral aroma with a hint of dark berry. Low to moderate fruity esters are present.
Taste. Initial bready and toasted malt flavors from the Amber malt are quickly met by a medium-high hop bitterness. Hop flavors are earthy and floral with a touch of forest fruit. The balance is decidedly bitter but supported by the malt, leading to a dry, clean finish with a lingering thirst-quenching quality.
Mouthfeel. Light to medium-light body with a smooth, soft texture. Low to moderate carbonation and no perceived alcohol warmth.
