0.33l bottle shared with The Tasting Crew. Pours a mindblowing beet-red body - really scared me this color! It also has a thin small quickly sidesticking head. The aroma has strong cellar tones, surprisingly hints of chocolate/cocoa and hints of good old canning. It's really flat and has a thin and watery texture. It tastes a bit like earthy un-treated beets. At first really unpleasing, but I managed to finish the glass. Almost no bitterness. Way out on the crazy-scale this "beer"! 13.04.2012

Aroma: Musty yeast smell. Subtle lemon notes.
Appearance: Hazy cardboard-coloured body. No head whatsoever. Virtually no carbonation.
Taste: Almost flavourless. Lemon notes trying to get through, but stifled by a dusty, bland yeast flavour. It tastes like diluted beer.
Palate: Thin, watery and flat.
Overall: Easily the worst beer I have ever tasted. Undrinkable.

Hoppy in both its nose and its taste, however retains a full pale ale flavour.

Bottle from Peckham’s Union Square. It pours bright red, with a thin pink head. The nose is all about beetroot and earth. The taste is beetroot, earth, gravel, turnip, grass, plastic and wood, with a dry finish. Light body and fine carbonation. Too thin. Too weird. Drain pour.
