Bottle, courtesy of Dedollewaitor. I’t s a clear, dark golden to pale amber beer with a minimal sized off-white head. Slightly acidic on the nose, with a little maltyness and a good hoppyness. Cellar hints. It’s medium bodied and pleasantly carbonated. The flavor has a nice bitterness, really nice actually, and there’s also some pale malts and fruityness. Grassy, piney and citrus-peel like. Lasting bitter, hoppy finish. A nice one, the hops being its main asset. 110319

On tap at the brewpub. Cloudy amber with a firm and lasting white head. Beautiful biscuity malt aroma with herbal hops. Malty flavour, lots of fresh cereal, bread crust and toffee, a touch of red berries, and fine herbal and spicy hops. Very bitter with a long aftertaste.
