Bottle split at Sentinel, thanks to Dave Unpronouceabubble, 20/05/16. Amber to golden pour topped with a decent off white swirl. Nose is bitter fruit rinds, light hop trace, orange peel, floral, pine tinges. Taste comprises toasted bread, bitter orange, citric dipped hay, light bitter edge. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a moderately tarte conclusion. Ok stuff ... very mild sour.
