The
beer had an unassuming bouquet--slightly grainy and dryly bitter--but
nothing too assertive. The flavour, too, proved to be a bit on the mild
side. Grainy first, with only a touch of the promised hops, manifested
as a floral charge that was admittedly pleasant, but nowhere near the
bombast I was salivating over.
Truthfully, this
dry-hopped lager had only the IBU heft of a Czech pilsner. Though it
might have been hoppy by U.K. standards, it didn't offer the jolt I was
counting on. I thought that this was, mostly, a fine beer, but if you're
gonna boast about your hops, you'd better deliver.
Rating: 6.5 out of 10.
