James Squire Hop Thief

I got a carton of it the other day... I'm quite impressed! While the name implied a much more bitter beer than there was (or maybe I was expecting way too much bittering?), it turned out to be the right amount. The undertones of passionfruit were surprisingly strong; I expected it to be a little more subtle than that, but its dominance adds quite an interesting dimension that I wasn't expecting- for the better, IMHO. The other citrus flavours flowing through it make it well rounded. The malt flavour is there, but serving to enhance the hops rather than overtake them.

Quite a nice beer! I recommend everyone to give it a try
