Cask handpull at Hop Rocket Norwich. Clear dark amber colour thin white head. OK malty ipa. I was expecting a bit more usa pnw style. Some dryness on the finish some toffee some resin flavour. Mild bitterness. Didn't live up to the bulling.

26/9/2025. Cask at the St Albans Beer & Cider Festival 2025. Decent pour. Wasn’t expecting it to be so smoky. Practically a rauchbier. Toasted and fruity. Not bad, but too much smoke for me.
