Name: Master Brew
ABV: 4%
Style: Bitter
Brewery: Shepherd Neame
Location: Faversham, Kent
Aroma: A fruit hopiness dominates, along with grassy qualities and a whiff of toffee and aromatic spices.
Colour: Auburn brown with a one finger white head.
Taste: A light bitterness, followed on by a fruity maltiness that is a tad subdued, biscuity dry, it leaves a spicy aftertate, while the mouthfeel is smooth, a tad cloying. The Kentish hops are the stand-out flavour that is coming through here.
Verdict: A very sessionable tipple that is light on flavour and substance, ideal for a hot Summer's day. Hops take centre stage here, but its let down by the abscence of any diserable malt notes, better on cask that bottle.
Rating: 5/10
