Joeh (1892), Buckinghamshire, England Jan 31, 2008 Bottle, than’s to Silk. Seem’s quite past it, a bit cardboardy. Alcohol doesn’t seem to have mellowed too much, quite a harsh alcoholic burn. One dimensional malt base and still lots of hops.

Clear golden/red color with medium textured, tanned head. Citric aroma with notes of herbs, phenol, honey and nuts. Phenols in the flavor with more citrus fruits, honey and oak.
