Kind of like their last effort, this doesn't quite live up to the promise - but this time, not by much. Taste brings caramel, a bit of heat, mandarin and passionfruit but it all falls just shy of that majestic 'buckets of hops' smell that really builds your anticipation before the first drop has even left the glass. It was a common refrain around my table at least that there was just not quite enough bitterness and bite in the taste to really sate the desire you've built up.
Still, it's far from a bad beer, and I look forward to trying some more of what these guys are producing. 8.0
