Keg @ Brew Dock, Dublin [020415]
Dark amber brown, thin white head, quite murky, good lacing
Aroma of citrus hops, resinous hops, caramelised orange, pine
Taste of citrus hops, good fruity bitter hops, dab of tropical fruit, fresh hoppy, good malts are not over done, no brewing faults
Palate - Medium carb, good robust hoppy bitterness. Finish has some stinging zest, cleans off palate
Overall - Decent amber

Draught at ICBF15. Murky brown with a thin head. Aroma is fruity hop. Flavour of dark sweet hop, fruity, no bitterness at all. Fruity finish, no hint of the strength at all.

On draft, pours a very deep red to brown. Ketchup aroma of vinegar and biscuit malt, some floral aroma hops. Taste is overly bittering hops combined with sweet biscuit malts. Trying too hard to create a bitter brown beer, with none if the delight in hop flavour. Overall it’s not a bad beer, good first offering and something to build on, but not in par with other hoppy ambers.
