| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 1, 2006 Cask conditioned @ Humble Plumb, Soton. Smooth zesty hop aromas, malt in background and slightly farty yeast. Other than the yeast fairly pleasant but a bit mildly flavoured. I seem to remember the Henley brewed version having a more distinct malt character and a better hop finish. harrisoni (6947), Ashford, Kent, England
