By Jeff Evans

Nose: Keen hoppy aroma with lots of resins and suggestions of pear.
Palate: Crisp and clean, with hop resins still in evidence and more pears. Rather thin for its strength, however.
Finish: Dry and hoppy.
Comment: A pleasant enough and interesting progression from the often insipid standard Greene King IPA, but it fails to deliver what's really needed in a proper IPA – full body and a good smack of hops.
