From the world's first Small Beer Brewery, 'The Original Small Beer Dark Lager' is all coffee, toast and dark chocolate. It noses like a stout or porter, but drinks like a lager leaving you with a lightly roasted finish on the palate. This is unquestionably a beer to both refresh & challenge.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear, dark brown with a vague, orange tint and a beige head. Very subtle roasty nose, perhaps with a slightly nutty touch. Thin body, again slightly roasty perhaps even with a vague, smoky note. No bitterness. Again very well made. 160921

Many thanks for this small bottle to Jacek Wigier (wineofdreams@gmail.com). piwo ma fajna mala nuteleczke, piane srednia ale taka jak crema na kawie espresso, intensywnie ciemy brazowy kolor z niewielkimi refleksami czerwieni i bardzo ciemnego fioletu. Zapach kakao i prazona kawa w pierwszej chwili. po pierwszym jak ze oczywistym malym lyku czuc te kawe, kakao i gorzka czekolade, dosc intensywnie palone i wyraziste piwo co zadziwia przy tylko procencie, a wiec znow piwo nisko alkoholowe mnie pozytywnie zaskoczylo. Small beer, big London.

330ml bottle. Dark brown, thin white head. Nice aroma of coffee, roasted malts and chocolate. Taste is very watery with some roasted malts and caramel, light body and spritzy carbonation. Its not bad for 1%

Bottle from Westhill Service Station. Clear brown/ruby body with a thick beige head that holds well. Lively carbonation. Thick lacing. Aroma of copper penny and caramel. Flavour of wood, mineral water and oats. Thin body with a slick_ mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Very impressive. I’ll have this again.
