Gower Brewery - Best Bitter (4.5%)


Taste: Perfect Sunday ale. This is relaxation in ale form. Simply flows through your mouth in a delicious carefree manner. Flavour wise it's subtle malt and light lemons but hang on I'm too relaxed to think about flavours, and the ale has almost gone.

Appearance: Classic ale amber brown

Would you buy 2? Yep

Would you buy 4? Yep

Rating (out of 7): 6 * * * * * *. Not the most rock and roll, but unpretentious and delicious!
