This Ordinary Bitter serves as a liquid tribute to craft legends Steve Huxley and Wolfe Witham, drawing inspiration from the Norfolk-based Wolf Brewery’s Coyote recipe. At 4.3% ABV, it leans toward the top end of the style, presenting a sensory profile rooted in English tradition. Expect a bouquet of bready and biscuity malts complemented by a delicate, earthy, and floral hop presence. A subtle undercurrent of fruity esters leads to a decidedly bitter yet balanced palate, finishing clean and dry. This sessionable ale captures a classic pub spirit, offering high drinkability with a soulful, commemorative character.
