| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Sep 30, 2009 A Mes rate. Bottle from the random offy drunk in Hoxton Square. A big fruity IPA. Burnt plastic in a typical Pitfield style. Far too sweet and harshly alcoholic. Raw and totally unrefined. Pretty awful. DJMonarch (6878), Northwich, Cheshire, England

Hoppy aroma. Amber coloured strong in alcohol and hoppy with a crisp and slightly bitter dry lasting finish.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 10, 2009 Nose is nice, though a bit muted, and the palate while pleasant does not seem complete. A nice IPA leaning towards roasted notes, and less towards the floral/citrus. Ethereal (1500), London, Greater London, England
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 25, 2009 Cask at the Bricklayers Arms, 15th Jan 09, with tashi. Dark amber appearance. Restrained aroma. Full bodied with lots of great floral hop flavours. Malty sweetness fills out the flavour. A satisfying drink for a winter evening by the fire (which this was) but less suitable for a hot summers day. haddonsman (1234), Derby, Derbyshire, England
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 7, 2008 Bottled, from Sound Bites, Derby. Derby’s premier organic food store with plenty of organic beer, a decent Pitfield range as well as stuff from Marble and others. Second in the bottle-raiding session tonight. Not bad; slight citric aroma, buttercup-puckering hops that soon subside, lacks that certain ba-da-BING! that I’ve come to love from IPAs. SHIG (2037), Aviano, Italy

The aroma was hops and pine. The taste is balanced with a nice hop finish. cgarvieuk (4201), Edinburgh, Scotland
