In the interest of eh eh :roll: eh eh the forum and all it's members i thought it only fair to try a pint from the keg to compare although i did add some hop tea to the keg. I have to say the keg is head and shoulders over the bottle, i don't know if it's the hop tea or the fact that beer is supposed to mature better in bulk.

I find the same thing.
My Orfy's Hobgob is an enjoyable pint but I think the next time I will up the crystal a smidge and drop the chocolate a touch.

I take it your enjoying yours! :)
