On tap at Redoak Boutique Beer Cafe, pours a hazy copper with a small white head. Aroma is quite pronouncedly hoppy, with lots of English hops. Flavour is very earthy, with a metallic tinge to it, along with subdued English hops and floral soapiness. Not a big fan - needs tweaking.

Tap. Clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma of stone fruits, mild spices and caramel. Taste has caramel sweetness with grapefruit-tinged hop bitterness. Also an odd dusty and metallic note.

From a 330ml bottle on 7/2/2010. According to the bottle, this won the award for best bitter at the 2009 World Beer Awards (note my bottle says 3.5% rather than the 3.4% listed above). Lovely hoppy, grassy, fruity aroma with a dash of caramel on the malt side. Subtle malt and citrus fruit flavours are balanced beautifully with a long and satisfying medium bitter finish. Very drinkable.
