At the mouth of the Camel Estuary in Rock, lies the treacherous Doom Bar sandbank, the inspiration for this moreish amber ale.

The sandbank is revered as a formidable nautical challenge that should be approached with respect and navigated with skill.

I found a 500 ml bottle of Doom Bar at a corner store just out of downtown London. New brewer, new beer certainly, trying out an English brewer on a holiday. Pouring into the only glass available I see an amber-copper body with a ring of almost totally white bubbles. I smell grain, malt and field. The drink compares to an amber ale with malt, cereal, a touch of caramel sweetness and water. Wish it was colder but I have no real complaint.

Not great, weak flavour and aroma. Seemed low on carbonation and the head lasted about 60seconds.

50cl bottle from SuperAlko, Tallinn. Pours clear amber with a modest, white head. Malty and caramelly with mild hoppy notes. Sweet, but somewhat balanced and ends up fairly drinkable in the end.

Corey off white head on a caramel coloured body. Sweet, fruity & malt aroma. Medium bodied smooth & creamy. Malt, sweet, caramel & fruity tastes with a lightly hopped finish. Nice one.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
