2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 9/20
[Dad shared a bottle with me - cheers!] Amber, negligible head, with a horrible thin, very prickly fizz dominating the watery mouthfeel. Flavourwise, there’s caramel to the fore, slight citrus & floral hints, and a moderate mineral bitterness to finish. Ruined by the carbonation; presumably better on cask. 6/167

(Bottled) Gosh this was subdued . I realise that’s the point , bitters are usually tepid but this takes the piss in mild nuance . A pretty earthy hop profile ,with butterscotch and caramel .. soulless .
