| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 4, 2008 Faversham, Brugge-Eve. Golden with white foam. Lovely crisp hop bite, bags of yeast, soggy dough, lingering vanilla. Snort of freshbread maltiness, bit of cask wood, splash of alcohol lets it down. Faint peardroppy esters, garden herby and leafy English hop aroma. Attractive, sweet but slightly biting, malt-driven Bitter. Quite a decent festival opener I thought. bobinlondon (843), Harrow, Greater London, England

Light copper with a good white head in fresh lively condition. However, appearences can be deceptive for the flavour let it down. Lacking in all departments. A truly unremarkable ale.
