Well I must say I'm very underwelmed with this tbh. I don't like the taste at all . Very bitter to the taste. It looks lovely with great head retention , just a shame about the Damn taste. Personally I think it would be spot on without the hops, It does benefit from a top of lemonade to mask the sour bitter taste. If you are considering this kit don't add all the hops because I think it's ruined it.
Will be back on the Muntons.
 
I've done this one and quite enjoyed it myself. It may mellow in time so maybe give it a couple of weeks before trying again? Everyone's taste differs as well I guess.

The only Festival kit that I've noted I didn't enjoy so much was Pilgrims Hope, still drinkable but had better. Their Porter is excellent though and Summer Glory. Got the Landlord waiting to be brewed soon.
