3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Gentle malty nose with not much hops to speak of. Pours slightly muddy gold with a bit of a dishwatery vibe. The taste is ok - pleasant bitterness and a nice hoppy finish but sadly the whole is slightly undermined by a wateryness and a thinness in the mouthfeel. In summary it’s a fine example of a session bitter, but as they’ve badged it as an IPA I’ll assess it on those terms and it falls short.
