4.8/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 4 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5
Bottle from Drinkstore, Dublin [261213]
Black, thin dark tan head, light lacing
Aroma - Herbal zest hop nose, slight rubber on the nose, cut vegetable stems, car tyre, not liking the hop aroma in this
Taste - Bitter dry zest, herbal hops, some dark bitter roast, plant material, dab of burnt rubber, odd, oh this isn’t working for me
Palate - Soft carb, thinnish body, bitter hop, dry. Finish - dry bitter herbal hop finish, rather astringent
Overall - Oh I’m the only one here not liking this - the hop profile didn’t agree with my palate at all

Bottle. Reddish black with a tan head. Aroma is sweet hop. Flavor is dark roasted malt, dry burnt base with a hint of fruit. Texture is velvet.
