3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Nice gingery copper colour. Plenty of tangy hops, juicy fruit and firm malt in the aroma. Maybe just a touch grainy. More of the same on the palate. Excellent balance. Fresh, clean and succulent. A very nice drop. Cask (gravity dispense), Battersea Beer Festival, February 2005.
