Elder Statesman | Firebrick Brewery
ABV: 4.5%
Style: English Bitter
Actively Produced
Description: It seemed correct to name our Best Bitter "Elder Statesman", after 19th Century MP Sir Joseph Cowen Snr. Founder of the brickworks that gave our brewery its name; he was knighted for his work on the Tyne Commission, straightening and dredging that river, allowing shipping and industry to flourish in the area. A substantial but not overpowering best bitter, deep coloured with flavours of malt biscuit, plum fruit and a pleasant bitterness.
