(bottle - 12 oz) Clear amber color with a thin off-white head. Aroma is floral and hoppy at the beginning with a very mild citrus followup. Grassy and hoppy at the beginning with a slight sweet malt middle. Floral and citrus at the finish with some bitterness that lingers. Not bad.

Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Sugar aroma with caramel malts and citrus hops. Flavor is also sweet with caramel malts, and citrus and floral hops. Overall not bad but not that great either.

Bottle 355ml
Appearance: straight clear amber with rater larger foamy top. Little lace.
Nose: crystal malt with average hop feel, sugary dusty sweetness. 5+
Flavor/Palate : Medium bodied with thinner sides. Slight hint of English character all covered up with sweet malts that don’t match to well with style. Bit too sweet. Washed up finish.

12oz bottle. Pours a dark gold with a frothy white head. Slightly bitter earthy citrus hop aroma. Taste is malty with a citrus earth hop balance. A decent EPA and much better on cask, if you can get it.

This had a aroma of caramel, and slight hops. with a color of a dark amber. The taste is not bitter at all really, not like other PA’s. its more sweet than anything. the flavor is Caramel, and really like hops. over all not my top.

Bottle...Mediocre for the style, too much bittering hops and not enough flavor or aromatic hops. Still, this is drinkable.
