Bottle. No fruitiness, no sweetness. Strange metalic and plastic notes. Very "dark" tasting for pale ale.

Bottle 33 cl. Slightly hazy amber with a dense off-white head leaving laces. Some citrusy hops in the nose but also a distinct note of smoke or burned plastic. Medium body, sweet caramel and again loads of burned plastic and ashes. Dry finish. What a waste of good hops in a poorly executed beer. 100312

Bottled@SBWF2011. WOW. Golden colour, small head. Aroma is bready, rather hoppy with some grass, grains and yeasty notes. Flavour is grains, rotten vegetables and some grassy hops as well. This beer has exactly the kind of hopping I can’t stand in a beer. Really not my thing.
