The public opinion on this beer is still out as it has scored a 38 and a 22 in the two competitions it has entered, however, in our opinion, it is one of the better beers we’ve brewed. A nice relaxed bitter that is an easy sipper.
I don’t have a lot of recipes that I want to brew again as the hobby has so much variety and new things to try, but this one will be brewed again in the future. Perhaps with some minor tweaks.
