Comments: www.morrisseyfox.co.uk Finest aromatic hops, malts, barley and water. This glossy brunette is our take on the best of a best bitter. Nutty, with flavours of caramel and toffee and a firm, but mellow hoppiness, it's got all the credentials of a classic ale. Except, this little angel has had the added benefit of late hopping with our specially selected fruity hops for that unique Morrisey Fox vibe. Give it a go with any good roast pork, chicken or griddled steak when those wonderful malty, caramelised flavours will latch right onto the seared meat flavours for a classic food and beer combo.
