Pours clear, lightly darkened blonde. Small white head. Scent is earthy hops, medium mild intensity. Taste is fairly bitter, especially to today's standards. Earthy, spicy hops. Very English character. A bit sweetness from the malts as well (crystal malts, I assume) . Not very smooth though, feels a bit arteficial to me as well. Wattery body. Medium carbo. Nothing truly bas about this one, and it has many desirable factors.. Just none of them really seem to shine bright, which makes it a less-than-average beer in it's totality.

10/1/2021. Bottle from Morrisons, Ipswich. Pours clear golden with a frothy white head. Aroma is citrus, hops, flowers, grain, touch of caramel. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Light body, watery texture, bit above average carbonation. Not much to this.

Dark golden colour, small white head. Rustic English hoppy aroma, some fruits. Light-bodied. English malts, citrusy hops, some toffee underlying. Nice hoppy bite for this ABV. OK.
