Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. Murky, amber colour. Thin, off white head. I can tell at a glance that the condition is way off. Nose has jammy malts. Some spruce and minty herb. Taste is sappy bitter, with some jammy sweetness. Heavy and sugary mouthfeel. Almost flat. Big bitterness to finish. What’s the point of brewing beer crammed full of expensive hops, and then having it bottled by someone who couldn’t bottle beer to save their arses? It’s like drinking a six month old US IPA that’s been sat in a shop window.
