First off it would be remiss of me to not mention the fantastic artwork on this one, props to the team at Brew York coming up with this one, and a cracking name too. it really took me back to my youth.
This was a really good well balanced hazy pale, it was just lacking a tiny bit of something to get it into the 4’s it was so close, I bet this is cracking on tap though! I will definitely be keeping my eyes open for this one on my next visit to York.
Our overall rating: 3.8/ 5.0
