2005 draught @ Redbones, 2/6/05. Fruitier notes from the aroma, a bit more earthiness but the same amber-orange color with a clumpy, small off-white head. In both cases, the hops take front-seat in the nose, but in the flavor, the British yeast adds more fruity notes and even some more crispness. The difference is still, not that big. I’ll take the clean, buttery and fruity flavors of the British. Less paperiness as well.
