3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the brewpub. Pours clear amber with a small white head. Hoppy aroma, some caramel. Taste is strong hoppy, complex and spicy. Coriander and light pepper. Lingering moderate bitter aftertaste.Quite pleasant and interesting.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle the folks picked me up from Driftwood Spars. Pours slightly veiled gold with a dense, well-retained white collar. Aroma has got me dribbling; a big, Bretty smack of farmyard, flowers and mouldering satsuma. If it was Orval, Cantillon or a Sorachi Ace single hop I’d be giving it an 8 or 9, so what the hell. Flavour a little more challenging; mildly acidic, edgy, equine....Good limey, pollen-dappled hop and lavender cutting through husk and horseblanket. Don’t think I’ve ever changed my mind so entirely about a beer at a second sitting- I couldn’t drink half a bottle the first time I tried this, now I’m thirsting for another. Really enjoyable.
