Cask at the Colmore, Birmingham. Poured a clear dark amber colour with an everlasting frothy white head. The aroma is big floral hops. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a smooth, nutty, herbal, earthy, perfume, floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Dry hopped by Givenchy! Like drinking my flower garden.

Keg @ Tapped, Leeds. Dirty amber with a thick head. It’s spicy with some ginger and cinnamon evident. It’s slightly sweet but not quite feeling its strength in taste.
