Description
In a nutshell:
A ruby ale offering an intensely hoppy flavour with a lingering bitterness and a surprising hint of fruitcake.
The lowdown:
Georgian Dragon is a classic ruby ale, brewed by the fine folk at Harvey's in the lead up to St George's Day. A touch of fruit on the nose, mind you, something akin to a well-matured fruitcake, perhaps. On the palate, the malt has its say, a gentle sweetness with a hint of biscuit. The hops provide a pleasing, earthy bitterness, ensuring a proper grown-up beer, without venturing into any newfangled silliness. One to quietly enjoy with a hearty cheddar.
The Brewery:
Now, Harvey's of Lewes, they're a rather intriguing bunch, aren't they? Tucked away in Sussex, brewing beer for eight generations. You half expect to see someone in breeches and a powdered wig stroll out of the place. Yet, they somehow manage to navigate the modern world with their time-tested brewing methods. Their beers, well, they lean traditional. There's their Best Bitter, which does precisely what it advertises - delivers a rather agreeable pint. And if you're in the mood for something darker, that Old Ale of theirs is a proper winter warmer with just the right amount of depth. But here's the thing, in this world of ever-changing craft trends with more hops than you can shake a stick at, Harvey's offers a certain old-school charm. Like discovering a classic British film on a Sunday afternoon, there's something reassuring in their steadfast dedication to well-made, unfussy brews.
Style - IPA ABV 4.7% - Moderate Strength
