Davros IX (895) - Hertford, Hertfordshire, ENGLAND - SEP 24, 2018Bottle at home. I have no idea how many gallons of this I drank during my 3 years at Leicester University, but as a beer it didn't stick in my mind. Having a bottle on Saturday evening explains why, as it had very little flavour. There was some malt with bitter hops and that was about it. It was quite watery, but that is not a positive.
