Draught @ the brewpub
Aroma is rather high on hay – probably the hayest beer I’ve ever smelled. Also some fruity hops and hints of grainy malt. Flavour feels somewhat malty with nettles, some hops, coffee, hints of chocolate and metal. Finishes with gooseberry bush. Decent, perhaps a bit too much hops here. Not very ’Velvet’.

(Draught at SOPP’12) The beer poured reddish brown and almost clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had mildly malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, hops, mildly molasses and medium bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. Not so impressive beer.
