| Tasting Notes |
| Craig Daniels | Nose: white rubber and fresh acrylic paint
Palate: thin and watery, peanuts and a little apricot.
Finish: papery, watery, dull, no guts.
Comment: I wonder whether a malt can collapse so completely that any alcohol seems to have evaporated off. Tasted watered down to at least 20%. |
