Bottle from Yamaya. On sale. I’d heard about this beer so wanted to check it out but what a colossal disappointment. It looks like an IPA but then smells super grassy like a lame lager. The taste is again ovverpoweringly grass & hay with a bit of malt sweetness and a touch of hops. In no way is this what a North American expects from an IPA. Probably the worst IPA I’ve had...

cereal, brown, clear, minimal head, light body, thin feel, average carbonation, not a lot to reccomend

Bottle in Geneva at PSingh’s pre-wedding alcohol tasting session. Oh no, an export version! Same dismal dishwater skunky malt feel as the basic version, the extra alcohol making little discernable difference. I’m not a Greene King fan and this one is no exception.

Nötig, maltig. Lite spretig i smaken. Engelsk ale i stilen. Ingen favorit direkt

500 ml bottle. Aroma malty and metallic, very peculiar aroma. Taste is about the same, bitterness is high.
