500 ml bottle. Pours a dirty brown with full head. Aromas of pine resin, grass, sweat and biscuity malts. Flavors of grass, tea, and pine on wet toasted malts. Is this old? One of those tagged labels; hard to say if BBD is April 20 or 19 Picked up at Wallys in Cardiff.

Bottle on the train to Tourist Town, thanks to da Wingman, 19/11/14. Golden with a big ass light beige covering. Nose is melon, caramel, trace of apple blossom, biscuit. Taste comprises floral hops, melon, hint of tangerine, light bread dough. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, earthy bitter rinse in the close. Mediocre, ESB more than IPA, another wanna be craft brewer coming up short!
