Butts, Organic Golden Brown (England) 
(RP) People who know about these things tell me the voluptuous young lady on the label is a reference to a track called Golden Brown by a group called the Stranglers. The brewery�s founder, Chris Butt, is a keen Stranglers fan. He keeps his cards close to his chest where ingredients are concerned, revealing only that Golden Brown uses three malts and just one English hop. At present only Target is grown organically in England so I think we can assume the beer�s rich bitter and fruit note comes from that variety. The nutty aroma and flavour is probably due to the use of crystal malt while a light roasted note suggests a touch of darker grain: brown, black or chocolate. The amber beer has a pleasing rich malt, tart fruit, chocolate and pungent hop resins aroma. The full-bodied palate is dominated by biscuity malt and tart hops, while the long finish has nuts, a hint of chocolate, tangy fruit and dry, bitter hops 5.0% ABV, 50cl, �26.99 X 12, Livingbeer.com, Onlyfinebeer. | |
