Our multi-award winning Best Bitter now part of the Sprig + Fern Brewing Co. core range of beers – try it once and you’ll soon see why it’s sticking around!
This well-known English-style beer has earned it’s stripes as a hoppier, and therefore more bitter counterpart to the typically mild pale ales of its time. It’s notched a few medals along the way, too:
2023: GOLD – Australian International Beer Awards, Highly Commended – New World Beer & Cider Awards
2016: Best British Ale – Brewers Guild of New Zealand Beer Awards
Our Best Bitter blends five speciality malts to give the ideal balance of sweetness, providing well rounded toffee and biscuit characteristics. This is in combination with just the right amount of hops to accent the bitterness, and give a fruity, earthy aroma without dominating this malt-driven beer.
Amber in colour, bitter yet smooth in flavour, and malty in finish, Best Bitter is one not to miss! Available in 440ml cans and 1.25L riggers – as well as on tap at all Sprig + Fern Taverns.
