| Andrew | | 03 Feb 2008 | Golden, well ballanced with a rich and citrus hop to it. I shall miss this brewery when it closes in the very near future. |

| Ian |  | 04 Mar 2006 | Copper colour with bubbly ivory colour head. Strong hop aroma, something American perhaps. Malts need to be stronger in mouth before an attack of citrus, intense hop on end. Grapefruit. Needs more malt structure. Hops seem lost without it. And served too cold too. Apart from that its tasty hoppy strong beer. Alcohol doesn't distort it. Hop finish would be stunning if underpinned by stronger malts. |
Grand Union IPA
5.30% ABV.
Explosive hoppy aroma and flavour. Radiates strength. Dangerously drinkable.
