A bit to sweet double, but still a nice hoppy one. Hazed deep golden color with a fine white head. A bit sweet dried fruity, pine and grapefruit hoppy. Medium + body and a soft to average carbonation. Could have had a better bitterness to balance it.

Bottle at the Porterhouse in Covent Garden. Clear chestnut colour lasting beige head. Sour hoppy malty alcoholic aroma. Pine hops. Very malty. A little thin. That’s a surprise. Big wild not exactly subtle or balanced but certainly entertainment in a glass.

Clear amber gold lasting white head. It?s a dryish dusty pale ale. On tap at Porterhouse Covent Garden. Some malt. Some hop on finish. Just a little dull. Some hop sting finish. OK.
