The colour was clear medium orange copper, with a medium frothy head, and medium carbonation. The aroma had quite strong resin hops, balanced with some sweetness. There was smooth sweet malt and orange, with long dry pine hop bitterness. This beer was crisp and clean, with strong hop bitterness.

Note 1 I am not really a beer expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these beers. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these beers as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on freshness and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
