OK, to call this an APA may be a misnomer; its actually kind of dark pale, almost brown. Rather clean neutral clean nose. First taste is a big surprise, its quite sharp phenolic astringent bitter. Yes this is an impact on the uptake. The taste is somewhat alarming considering the other well done brews I've had here. I'm a little nervous of this being the 'ambridge' beer considering its uncivilized character. You'd think it would be a little more civilized. Good thing it has some co2 in there to distract you. Not impressed by this one.
