| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 16, 2009 Bottle with thanks to Ksurkin. Pours a bit murky with a somewhat dirty head...pollution like.. Smell is a bit dank and musty, with a backdrop of a little pine resin, some definite english hops, and more funk.
Taste is quite good though. Some faint citrus, maybe a touch of bandaid, good malt balance. Has a light acetyl touch to it. Like theres a splash of rubbing alcohol. Aftertaste is a bit funky. It leaves a dead leaf flavor behind as finds its way down the gullet. GoBlue (102), Falls Church, Virginia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 7, 2009 Nice Brit hop aroma and flavor. Great balance on malt, and hop flavor and bitterness. Rich toffee like flavors balance nicely with the earthy and slightly spicy hops. Carbonation a bit too high for the style, otherwise very nice. blutt59 (2167), Dallas, Texas, USA
