If you know somebody who’s been bad give ’em a taste of the switch... The Hickory Switch! They’ll surely come back for more of this smokin’ ale. This beer makes a great ingredient to chili, BBQ sauce, or as a marinade for red meat. Contains both the finest honey and hickory smoke.

Warning! Early amateur rating! Good carbonation. Initially somewhat smoky and then some fruity malt - turns sweeter. Very drinkable. Another cracking able from this brewery - at least from a male point of view!

Bottle at home ... Deep brown / red ... Rich smokey fruity malt ... bit over fizzy ... quite cherry fruity woody and sweet. odd touch of bbq sause ! ... Nice rounded and smooth ... Im a fan of this brewery with everything ive tried being pretty decent and intersting. I think this beer is definitly better than than its current average (2.74) Wife says taste more like a sause than beer but quite likes it and i tend to aggree with description that it would be great in a Chilli. WIsh i had another.

[i] Bottle picked up from the Dodgy Deli’. Cowley Road, Oxford.[/i] Poured dark brown, bit murky, bit smoky in aroma, some yeast, malty but a touch thin and loose, sort of homemadeish feel about it, but drinkable.
