## Tasting Notes

Our award-winning flagship beer! Unicorn Best Bitter was born in 1896.

Unusually light, agile, yet complex, Unicorn hasn’t changed in over a hundred years. The recipe was originally crafted in 1896 by Head Brewer, Alfred Munton. Since then, the beer has undergone multiple name changes and rebrands, but has always remained a traditional favourite.

Dripping with heritage, it’s a magnificent, thirst-quenching, thoroughbred bitter. The first of a bloodline that continues to this day.

Silver Medal Winner at the Brewing Industry International Awards.
