2.91/5  rDev -21.4%
look: 3.5 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 3 | overall: 3
Appearance: brown with gold tones, great clarity, medium layer of frothy off-white foam, strands of lace

Aroma: standard malt'n'hops, touch of iron, yeasty background

Flavor: dry malt base, tangy edge, vegetal hop flavor, powdery yeastiness, finishes dryish with a lingering hop bitterness

Mouthfeel: medium-full body, mild carbonation, a bit minerally

Other comments: Not particularly astounding. The label states that it is fermented in the Yorkshire square system... not sure it's worth the effort.

3.2/5  rDev -13.5%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3
500ml bottle

Pours with an amber body, slight head, some lacing, very little heard retention

Smell, musky, some hints of fruit

Taste, grain and musk are the primary flavours, some esters in the background, very little hop presence

An average ale, dunno about this one
