chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Dec 22, 2006 Cask (gravity dispense), Reading Beer Festival, April 2006. Golden amber coloured. Nicely defined, flowery hop aroma. Good smack of resinous, oily, spicy hops on the palate. Clean, sharp finish. Not sure about the German style, but a quite impressive hoppy beer.

Fresh and flavoursome. maeib (4000), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England May 1, 2006 Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Reading BF. A copper coloured beer with good citrus coloured hop in the aroma. The taste has fantastic hop notes and great depth. Probably the tastiest English beer of the day. As Joeh says: not German in any way. A very good bitter. Joeh (1892), Buckinghamshire, England May 1, 2006 Cask Conditioned at Reading BF 2006. Golden.
