The Rev James Original
4.5% Bitter
The Rev. James beer is one steeped in history. Acquired after the purchase of Crown Buckley, Rev. James is brewed to an original recipe dating back to 1885. The beer is named after one of the original owners of Buckley Brewery, the Rev, James Buckley, a business man with two conflicting roles – saving souls and satisfying thirsts. The Rev. James is brewed to a traditional recipe and has been described as having a flavour not commonly available these days. Full-bodied and warming, The Rev. James is rich in palate, spicy and aromatic with a deeply satisfying finish.

A lovely drink, not dry, pours a light ruby. Not fizzy with a nice non-soapy head that follows itself down the glass. Malty with slight fruit&nuts. To my tastes, one of the best bottled ales I’ve tried, would love to find this on the hand pump! Definitely quaffable. Pint please🗣️
