Review and Tasting

Sampled on 18/07/2013

Appearance

(sample best before 31-May-15) Clear, coppery amber with retentive white head.

Aroma

Floral and citrusy hops with underlying malt strangely reminiscent of marmite covered toast (surly a good thing?). Light caramel and faint pear skin.

Taste

Medium bodied, lightly malty with moderately bitter citrus and pine hops, candied citrus peel.

Aftertaste

Pleasantly bitter citrusy hops with lingering floral flavours.

Overall

Citrusy hop led but delicately so with underlying toasty malt and faint floral notes.
