3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Not bad, but it was a little flavorless, I do not know what these guys tried to do.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
This was 4.2% and just called the reiver, no ipa. Excellent aroma, peachy, citrus and pale malts. Taste is similar but lacking in the peachyness due to the bittering hops taking it away.

A Mes rate:
Cask at the Ffestiniog Railway Station Pub. Citric and a little apricot and marmalade. Lovely hops with a very slight malty undertone. Decent beer.

Cask conditioned at the Halfway House, Edinburgh. Deep golden colour, moderate creamy head. Moderate aroma, nothing really stands out. The flavour is quite well balanced between the malts and hops. Moderate fruity notes, hoppy / dusty finish. Okay.
