Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up at the London Beer Lab. Pours clear, deep gold with a frothy, white head. The aroma holds piney hops, ripening orange and melon, bready pale malts. Light sweet flavour with some flinty minerality, orange rind, a little melon, bread crust, pine needles. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Dry and flinty on the finish, with ample pithy citrus, piney and rindy bitterness. Not bad overall, although this seems like a step down from the original Bogan.

Bottle at home in London - sourced from Clapton Craft. Pours deep brown with a creamy, tan head. The aroma has some burnt lactose sugars, milk chocolate, light ashy roast. Light sweet flavour with notes of burnt caramel, brown sugar, mellow chocolate, some old coffee, moderate earthy bitterness. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with more ash, bittersweet cocoa, earth, aged coffee, dried berries. Interesting stuff. Not bad overall.
