Lovely hoppy aroma, citrussy with some almost pure lemon notes. Yellow, loose head. Refreshing palate. Hoppy, so refreshing, and fairly grainy. Alas a hint of chalkiness. Such nice hops. Good bitter.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Cask@Lychegatetavern, Wolverhampton. Amber beer with large creamy head and excellent lacing all the way down the glass. Looks excellent. Hop aroma. Taste is very hoppy with citrus fruits and a dry bitter finish. Palate is a little too average and is its biggest let down. A very hoppy beer.
