BlairExcellent11 Apr 2009 Odd but good is how we all agreed on this one. I actually got into an argument with a customer about this one. For some reason we had the brewery marked as 'Close' we all knew it was RCH but it wasn't our place to change it. But a customer got irate with me when I wouldn't change it and actually complained about me, one of the highlights of the day.

BrianExcellent27 Oct 2006 Smelt of pear drops. Full mouth with more acid. Clean citrus finish.

RCH Pitchfork

4.30% ABV.

The name comes from the Pitchfork rebellion of 1685 the last battle to be fought on English soil of the Civil War. A golden bitter with floral citric hop aroma. It has a hoppy predominate taste which is slightly sweet and fruity and leaves you wanting mo.

We have tried this beer 30 times.

We have given this beer an average score of Good to Excellent.
