Cask, handpump at The Hop Pole, Aylesbury, Bucks 10-05-10 Classic mid-amber colour with a slim white head. Some sweetness initially but this is soon slapped down by a heavy bitterness. Citric and syrupy flavour’s combine but its the bitterness that is the real noticeable thing about this beer it simply hangs about for ages. Enjoyed this but a half was enough. I gave this a 3.7 when having it in the pub but having left the pub and thought about it in the drive home I realised as pleasant as it was I didn’t like it that much, so it got knocked down a couple of notches.
