			A pale, golden quaffing ale with excellent flavours for its strength. Pleasingly hoppy throughout without being aggressive and also possessing of a fine aroma. The finish is dry with a small twist of sweetness at the end. If you feel that this is all rather pretentious then it can best be described as a bloody nice pint! Joint winner of South Hants CAMRA's Hampshire Beer of the Year 2007 (Press-Release) at the Southampton Beer Festival. We are so honoured, in this our first year at the Bowman Ales Brewery. It makes all the effort worthwhile. Joint winner of Beer of Festival with Elderado in the Southampton Beer Festival 2007 (Press Release)

			Gloriously rich golden in colour and with a wonderful mown grass aroma, this premium bitter is full of complex flavours including a tiny amount of caramel. The addition of American hops gives it a full hop flavour with a dry finish. As with the Swift One this is also a bloody good beer!

			A light chestnut in colour which puts it into the 'brown beer' category. As far as flavour goes, it tends rather more towards the malt than the hops, though there is a pleasing hop taste right at the finish. The aroma is light and pleasant.

			Ooh... Aah! A subtle injection of Elder Flowers defines this beer. Unlike some other brews of this type, there is no heavy floral scent, but more of the tiniest hint of this spring bloom. This beer has plenty of character and a lovely bitter finish. Joint Winner with Swift One of Beer of Festival in the Southampton Beer Festival 2007 (Press Release)

			Not a session beer this one. One to be savoured sitting by a roaring log fire. Aroma of Chestnuts, intriguing Chestnut flavours and rather Chestnutty in colour. Which is as it should be, as it is brewed with organic Chestnuts from the farm of Patrice Dupre in the Ardeche region of France. May contain nuts!
