3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Cask at the Roebuck, Nottingham. This pale ale unsurprisingly features aromas and flavours of citrus and soft fruit. I enjoy the American hops. It is very hoppy for its strength but somewhat unbalanced; it’s not quite as good as Dark Star’s APA or some of the better ones from America, like 3F Alpha King or Piece Full Frontal.
