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.

Bottle from Deeside Drinks Emporium. It pours clear amber with a medium white head. The nose is earthy, peach, apricot, sherbet, candied peel and light florals. The taste is crisp, dull bitterness, grain, bread, toast and light spice with a dry finish. Light-medium body and fine carbonation. A bit watery and weak unfortunately.....

33cl bottle sample thanks to Alison. Appearance - dark amber with a decent head. Nose - gentle toffee and biscuit but the overwhelming aroma is of malt. Taste - again, pale malt dominates the toffee and malt flavours which are not coming through strongly enough. Palate - light to medium bodied with a thin texture and it finishes off a bit flat. Overall - it kind of hinted at a Bitter but it didn’t really deliver it in full.
