onkelgobber (132) - Edinburgh, - OCT 5, 2012
Very generic nose. Hops and a bit of malt. Taste not much different. Some bread notes, a tiny bit of fruityness, a dry wash of hops at the end but still dull. Body light to medium. Bland but drinkable.

EithCubes (4198) - New Jersey, USA - AUG 5, 2012
Bottle by 30 APR 13. EKG and Fuggle nose, some fruitiness, clear dull orange pour with a sudsy beige head. Taste is sweet with a moderate heaping of those hops in nice balance, light nuts on the bottom with fruity swirling yeast and a little crystal-type scratch. Bit of caramel and stripping low-level bitterness, a little warming and decent for volume nursing. Light-medium body, aftertaste is nice and dry.
