Finchley Bitter

Finchley Bitter (abv unknown) is a unique Yorkshire style bitter brewed by a new microbrewery located in East Finchley. The brewery itself is still in the development stages and I was fortunate enough to try a pilot brew. Being a pilot brew the brewer has chosen to use malt extract to provide the fermentables rather than the traditional mashing method used by most larger scale commercial breweries. The beer itself is fresh, with a firm bitterness and a slight extract twang but is an excellent entry level selection and should become a promising beer when the pilot phase is over and large scale production begins. Hopefully as this new venture evolves I will be able to bring you breaking news about this exciting new micro! The picture below shows the pilot cask located at the back of the brewery premises!
