Taste +4
The nose is very IPA-like with citrus and floral hops. It is halfway between a hoppy IPA and a true English style bitter. This creamy brew still has the caramel malt sweetness with a little roast of a bitter but is enhanced with a strong citrus and floral hop ending of an IPA. Well done.
Aftertaste +2
The hops leave a very dry and astringent finish with a subdued grapefruit accent.

This was a new style to me and thought it was well done.

NFS-Shift is the newest driving game for PS3. I'm a sucker for a good driving game and this one does not disappoint. Who needs sunshine? Just take a vitamin D tablet.
Overall 9/10
This one has a bigger hop profile than your standard bitter. Like I said above, it is sort of a mix between and bitter and an IPA.
