Craft Islington. Bottleshare. Thanks to Fergus for the can. Very hazy amber beer, slightly dirty looking cream colour head. Airy palate, dry and with good fine carbonation. Smooth dry malts, a light creamy sweetness. Good hop spice here, starts to burn. Skunky hop before a smooth finish. Spicy linger. Enjoyable hop hit but like quite a few Cloudwater offerings, it hardly seems to matter what the hops are.
