Keg at The Hanging Bat. Pours murky brown, no real head. Cold. Aromas are caramel, tropical fruit, green hops. Taste is very bitter, perhaps the most bitter of all the Hopcraft beers tonight. Too cold though, like cold tea. Enjoyable, but an insult to history, really (Copyright R. Protz).

Keg at The Hanging Bat. Pours hazy yellow, thick white head. Big tropical fruit aromas, slight funky-cheesiness at the start, but that fades. Big bitter taste. Nice.

Keg at The Hanging Bat. Pours dark brown, thin tan head. Aromas of earthiness, touch of wet cardboard, coffee, light smoke. Taste brought the ’off’ flavours out a bit too much for me. Not a fan.
