	Description:		Does bitter still exist? Is it the same thing as pale ale? Has 'ale' has replaced 'bitter' in meaning the beer which isn't lager? These are a few of the questions we try to tackle in a post-Christmas meander which makes up the second Beertalkers beer styles special. We sampled Timothy Taylor's Landlord (4.3%) - once a bitter and now a pale ale; Gadds' No 3 pale ale (5%); Gadds' No.5 Best Bitter (4.4%) and Cheshire Brewhouse Cheshire Gap pale ale (3.7%). Cheshire Gap features East Kent Goldings and Boadeica which are both varieties of British hop. Find out more about Cheshire Brewhouse beers here and about Gadds' beers here. We have A Pint With the legendary Dr Peter Darby of Wye Hops Ltd, part of the British Hop Association. He's great company, loves beer and is a walking hop encyclopedia - what more could one want from a drinking buddy? Sophie referred to both Michael Jackson's Companion to Beer and Martyn Cornell's Amber, Gold and Black.
