3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Nice white froth of a head, on top of a light colored beer. First taste made me think ’IPA’--a burst of hoppiness. Similarly sharpish aromas, hop and a bit of honey (although not sweet). Some alcohol effevescence as a product of its 5.0% abv. Overall very good. (on tap, Turf Tavern, Oxford)
