Flowery, grassy hop which belies the intensity in the mouth. Flowery/floral hop, underpinned by biscuit malt with intense hop finish. Really tingles the tongue. Good supping beer. So good I had to get another half. hughie (3091), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England

Aroma of hops followed by a grapey, citrus taste that made this one of the festival highlights for me. Late surge of bitterness completes an excellent package.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Sep 4, 2004 Bright bottled at Peterborough Festival, drunk 10 days later. Wow! Hop explosion! Succulent beer. Aroma is fresh as though diving into a loaded hop back. Freshness is the key to the divine nature of this beast. It has the sweetness of the malt, and the crispness, and the balance, and the hop bite - it has all these things arranged in such a tempting, delicate, fresh.... O hell - it’s so clearly a great beer! Spiesy (2333), Global Citizen, Greater London, England

Big juicy hop aroma. Big and clean and something that I could easily recommend to my American cousins without apprehension. Good length on the palate. Complex fruity, hoppy flavour. kook (2034), Perth, Western Australia, Australia
