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.
