SKU: GEORGE_BITTER_AG_KIT

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 11B - Best Bitter.

This is an English Strong Bitter. Strong is relative by modern standards, it's under 5% ABV! Enjoy the classic flavour of complex malt with fruitiness from the English yeast and floral & earth notes from the hops.  A great session beer! This beer is a tribute to the footballer George Best, look him up and the anecdotes around him - he is a true legend!

Target ABV: 4.9%

Our kits are fresh! We assemble the ingredients after you place your order. The grain bill will be milled, unless you tell us in your order comments that you prefer it not to be.

This recipe has been designed to use acid malt to reach the target mash pH. If you wish to use the recommended mineral additions to achieve the intended flavour profile, these are to be added to the boil only. This kit does not include the minerals, but these can be purchased separately.
