Cask Handpump at the Cask & Cutler, Sheffield 21/08/2004 Clear golden hoppy with some citrus flavour. Bitter slightly dry lasting finish.

This was by no means a bad beer, but it suffered by comparison with the same brewery’s All American Hero (q.v.) tasted alongside it. It is pretty much the same straw colour, but the hop presence is far less apparent and the palate a lot softer. Altogether more lager-ish in feel and with lot less backbone & grip. Overall, OK but a touch bland. Cask (gravity), Peterborough Beer Festival 2004.

Peterborough Fest. Touch of butterscotch on the nose. Nice balance. Sharpish hops and an OK malt. Adds up to nothing much.
