4.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Cask at Brew Wharf on 27th June 2011. Clear, light amber with white part lacing foam ring. Aroma is citric hoppy with a touch of honey. Main taste is fruity, hoppy and very bitter. A lingering robust hoppy bitterness in a very satisfying finish, with a richly textured mouthfeel on light carbonation. Easy drinking. For a 3% session ale this is packed with flavour, powerfully bitter and more-ish. Another "tasting" session ending up with a second pint. Excellent!

Cask at MesandSim’s wedding. Hazy pale gold with a thin white head. Aroma is fruity and hoppy, flavour is similar with mild malts. Light and clean palate. Damn refreshing and fine work for the abv.

Tap (Brew Wharf, post-RBESG2011 Monday)
Hazy, that’s for sure. Tea-like aroma. Smooth palate. Mellow husky malts and a really smooth hoppy bite. Some apple, some grapefruit, some nettle, and tons of bite. A bit one-dimensional, to be honest, but certainly drinkable. I agree with the silky one - this needs more malt before it gets two thumbs up.
