3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask handpump at ’Hole in the Wall’ Waterloo, London. Mid brown bitter, hardly any head to speak of, starts off wonderful with plenty of hops and spicy flavours kicking around but after a while I found it a little too sweet and realised it was’nt quite as good as I initially thought, nonetheless it’s a good effort.
