Premium bitter from Brains in Cardiff, first brewed in 1958; the meaning of its name (Special Ale, Samuel Arthur, or “Skull Attack”) remains debated. Copper color, with a hazelnut richness from pale and crystal malts, balanced by the trio of Challenger, Goldings, and Fuggles hops; full-bodied but easy to drink.
