Blue Bird Premium XB Bitter, brewed by Coniston Brewing Co in Coniston, England.
If you ever happen to run across any of the three ales brewed by Coniston Brewery, drop everything you are doing and immediately buy up the entire stock. This particular variety is the only one currently available in my neighborhood and is excellent. The idea behind it is quite interesting, as it is a traditional English ale flavored, very slightly, with American hops. This is one of the cleanest tasting ales I have ever had the pleasure to drink and think the world of it. Keep your eyes peeled for a bottle.
