The Gladstone Best Bitter is a mildly cloudy tawny brown with a persistent thin white head. Aromas of mild spice under laid by earthy and floral hop bitterness share the stage equally, nobody pulls ahead of anyone else. Dry, yet palatable, hop bitterness leads on the tongue with a slightly lingering malt grain sweetness on the finish. The forwardness of the hop dryness is refreshing rather than overpowering, and plays well with the mild carbonation to create a soft, smooth mouthfeel.
