[on tap at Vices et Versa]
Yeasty, woody aroma with some belgian-like esters and quite a few phenolic notes and faint lemon. Hazy bronze under lacy, white wisps. Phenolic flavour that is a bit sour, almost like there was wheat malt, that develops into faint spicy, toffee malt. Medium bitterness. Medium body, moderate carbonation, moderately bitter finish. This English IPA tastes Belgian! Fermentation/yeast troubles?
