Light amber, faint crackery hop. A bit of toasty character but with not much hop. Ok macro amber but that’s below my expectations.

2009 bottle. This has settled down into a pretty consistent beer after what my memory says was a poor start. There’s a big aromatic grassy/ citric kick from the fresh hops but the malt is bland. There’s plenty of bitterness but not a lot else. A shame - they could have made something rather rambunctious with these hops but baulked. [2.8]2011 bottle. Amber with a large white head. Aroma of mild caramel, grass/ weeds and a little citrus. Taste has fairly bland malt, decent bitterness with a rather weedy character. Some leaf and resin. This years is pretty rough and again, not that flash.

Toffee/amber pour with a reasonable head that faded quickly.Aroma consists of grainy malt, a bit of floral hops and a hint of resin. Some slight metallic notes in the background. Pretty light on.Flavours are similar with caramel and resinous sweetness. Some treacle. Reasonable strong bitterness but unfortunately its quite boring and metallic.Too watery.

Bottle. Clear copper with slight off white head. Lovely floral aroma. Medium body and carbonation.Bright fruity foretatse with a nice sweet maltiness transitioning to a good fresh hoppy bitterness and a long bitter finish. A lovely refreshing beer; perhaps a little ion the bitter side for my taste.

Bottled. Deep golden. Appleay aroma. Medium bodied with rounded mouthfeel, and notes of vegetables. The hops doesn’t contribute much to aroma, but there’s plenty of bitterness.
