Bottle from Utobeer. Serious let down. Looks great, Black / brown, huge creamy tan head but sadly it settled all too quickly and was a sign of impendineg mediocrity. Am I mad or does this taste of very little else other than apple peel? There is possibly a very very slight hint of malt and yeast. Flavour is absolutely identical. As is the finish. Fantastic it is not. cgarvieuk (4171), Edinburgh, Scotland
