DonMagi (5599) - bantervile, Bedfordshire, ENGLAND - OCT 10, 2005
Seriously hoppy bad boy, grapfruit and grassy hops giving a very refreshing aroma. Taste is bitter, very bitter almost sour, similar to aroma with a very dry finish. Refreshing hoppy hoppy ale.

Gazza (726) - Worcester, Worcestershire, ENGLAND - OCT 29, 2004
Strange flavour to this amber beer; intense fruitiness combined with a strong bitterness. Is this made with green hops or something? (Cask at Tamworth beer festival)
