TCRL Hampden Jamaica HD #70 2012
Several tasters call this an "easy drinking" Hampden — the funk is there but dialed way down, sitting low in the ester range. Expect pineapple, light banana, orange and a faint honey sweetness, with a round, naturally sweet palate that one member kept linking to Barbados more than wild Jamaican glue. At 55.9% the ABV reads as fine rather than fierce.
The community says- Tropical fruit
- Gentle ester funk

Easy, fruity Hampden with mild funk Most find it a fruity, gentle Hampden that's enjoyable but not the funky fireworks some expect. A couple of tasters genuinely disliked it, but the average lands clearly positive.
