Cask at The Dog, Burton on Trent. Pours golden yellow with a small off-white head and good lacing. Not much of an aroma – only some vague hoppy character. In the mouth it is very briefly sweet and malty to start with before quickly becoming bitter with traditional hops and a hint of citrus. Later come spices and some hints of marmalade. Hops increase in strength leading to a dry finish. This is rather nice. It is very much an old school IPA but it is well balanced and packs a punch considering it’s strength – I couldn’t believe it was only 3.6% !

Bottle shared by Grumbo. Aroma is malty, buttery, grainy, vegy, bready and cereal. Very sweet and not a pleasant sweet. Thin body and quite smooth. No real finish kick.

500ml bottle from Morrisons online. Clear amber with nice creamy looking off-white head. Little on the nose except malts and a touch of metallic hops. Bready malts, nuts, hint of toffee and a very off-putting metallic note. Quite dry. I want to like it but I don't.
