09/05/2026 - Half pint from the cask (now 3.4%) at the Lamplighter, St Helier, Jersey. Much improved on previous tasting despite alcohol decrease, so score adjusted up.
Old review from 2019 - A pint from the cask at the Horse & Groom, East Woodlands, Somerset. Aromas of malt. Tastes of malt & biscuit. Fairly average bitter.

I've been hitting it a bit hard, so time for an AF night. Served well chilled it was a good pour and looked good in the glass. Plenty of hops and a hint of malt. A very good AF beer that actually tastes like beer. What's not to like?

Sehr helle, orange Farbe. Leicht bis mittel getrübt. Cremiger Schaum. Exotische Früchte, insbesondere aus dem Zitrusspektrum, in der Nase. Rein damit in den Schädel. Und… lecker. Zitronenschale und Grapefruit sind ipa-typisch vorherrschend. Ein Hauch von Mandarine, Orange und Mango findet sich auch. Deutlich im Hintergrund erkennt man eine süße Malzigkeit. Die Bitternoten sind schon sehr ordentlich. „Powerfully Hopped“ steht auf der Flasche. Dieses Versprechen (für den normalen Biertrinker ist dies eher eine Drohung, als ein Versprechen) wird wirklich erfüllt. Mehr müsste ich persönlich aber echt nicht haben - das ist so ziemlich die Grenze dessen, wo es mir noch Spaß macht. Wenig Kohlensäure. Das Bier ist ganz wunderbar weich. Dieses Ale fließt wie Öl die Kehle runter (dieses Wortspiel wollte ich schon lange mal machen). This beer is indeed a proper job. Well done.
