MickExceptional10 Nov 2012 Superb hops, very drinkable session bitter.
WittendenExceptional27 Oct 2012 Wonderfully characterful beer for the ABV: a deep pocket of hops with some toffee. A classic.
IanNot Tried20 Oct 2012
MickExcellent10 Sep 2012 Good crisp hop aroma taste and finish, a recioe change means a bit less hop bite though.

BrianExcellent17 Feb 2013 I've only had this once before and wasn't impressed. Must of had a bad pint, this was excellent. Big, lemony hit of ..er lemon and new mown grass. Soap suddy head and yellow body.
BrianNot Tried23 Dec 2012
Martin the MildmanAcceptable23 Dec 2012 Pale bitter with quite a harsh bitter hop character. Dry, hoppy finish. My score 14/20.

EddieExceptional07 Sep 2012 I agree with "Kentish ale" here a wonderful IPA with amazing depth for a beer of this strength.....

AlenomoreExceptional06 Sep 2012 "A super hoppy American style IPA, with a depth of flavour beyond its ABV". It sure was! Think BrewDog or a big Triple IPA from the U.S. Returned for more of this. Beer of the festival for me.

MickExceptional01 Jun 2012 Super hoppy American style IPA, tastes more than 3.9%. Serious hops but retaining a good depth of body. If you like you hops assertive this is the one to try. My beer of the festival, closely followed by the Imperial Stout.

MickExceptional27 Mar 2012 Powerful hop presence in this deep gold ale, some malt but the hops are superb, maybe verging on harsh. But i could drink several of these.
