Hogan Sampling		31 Jan 2026	Very good head and lacing presented and lingering well on this Staffordshire session bitter from Burslem, about 2 to 3 miles north of Stoke-on-Trent. A very malty first hit with biscuity notes. A hoppy bitterness rising from its gentle herbal hops. While not listed for First Class, Titanic frequently uses classic British hops such as Goldings in its other traditional core ales, such as Plum Porter and Classic Mild, to achieve herbal and spicy profiles. A biscuity malty note or two with caramel-infused fruitiness winning over and sliding down. Certainly, in superb nick with its natural carbonation living on and very moreish to my taste buds.

Hogan Sampling		30 Dec 2024	2nd night on for this Stoke-On-Trent bitter from Staffordshire. Still being served with head and lacing but needed multiple decants to maintain this. A very bitter first hit with lots of maltiness in the mouthfeel. A very slight touch of sweetness and reading the tasting notes, there was a nutty finish that I failed to detect.
Hogan Sampling		29 Dec 2024	Fresh on from last visit previous evening. Very good head and lacing on this Stoke-On-Trent bitter from Staffordshire. A slightly sweet first hit but then a malty mouthfeel with a dry, moreish aftertaste. One did not suffice, hence following on with the same.
Philip Pirrip		29 Dec 2024	Basic bitter. Lost head and lacing pretty quickly
Philip Pirrip		02 May 2024	Overly malty so hiding some of its bitterness
