Our Skipper’s Ticket beer has travelled the seas bringing together three nationalities of hops: the English East Kent Golding, the Czech Perle and the American Willamette. The resultant aroma is a beguiling combination of nuts, spices and floral notes, it matches its exotic aroma with a depth of dark fruits, caramel and earthy spice on the palate and a well-rounded bitterness to finish.

330ml bottle as part of a delivery from the brewery.reddish brown and very thin-looking, like it’s 30% beer and 70% water. Malty, woody, slightly smoky aroma. Light, sweet taste with some bitterness in the malty finish. Watery body, medium to heavy carbonation. Not terrible, but quite weak, almost like second runnings. Refreshing though. I’ve had worse.

Thin beige head on a reddish brown body. Sweet, malt & toffee aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a sharper clean finish. Toffee, malt & wet cardboard tastes with a fruity finish. Lacking.

Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Moderate body, somewhat watery, soft carbonation. A bit medicinal to finish. Not too keen.
