Perrin Bilbo's Bitter Baggins

English pale ales are classified on a scale starting with Ordinary Bitters (very low ABV and IBU; designed for very easy drinking), then Best Bitters (typically between 4.2% and 4.7% ABV), and finally, Extra Special Bitters (aggressive flavors with balanced hops and malt). This beer is a Best Bitter that is showcasing mid-range drinkability with a well-balanced malt and hop character. We used Marris Otter and Victory malts giving this a traditional biscuit-y malt flavor. We then used traditional Golding and Fuggle UK hops which are earthier than their American counterparts. We then dry hopped using Australian Helga hops which are known for their delicate herbal notes. She was then all topped off with a British yeast.
