| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 18, 2006 Cask, at Olbaren, May 2006. An amber coloured bitter with a very authentic feel. Many overseas brewers (and plenty of UK ones) struggle to get much flavour into a 3.6% beer. Plenty don’t even think its worth trying. No such worries with this beer. The aroma doesn’t leap out but the earthy and tangy bitterness builds on the palate to very tasty effect. The dry hopping is obviously much more generous than most UK examples. Very nicely done
