Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Poured a hazy medium amber with a thin broken white head and some broken lace. The aroma is yeast, floral hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a yeasty and rather unpleasant floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. I struggled to finish this. Not the greatest beer i’ve ever had.
