Combined Harvest is a unique combination of brewing worts, or extracts from a variety of cereals. Most premium ales are brewed only using malted barley, but this multigrained beer has a unique multigrain blend of malted barley, oats, rye and wheat. Grainy tasting with a delightful floral start and finish.

Aroma is malty, but not like in a lager. Rye and barnyard; plus fruity notes. Minimal head, amber colour. Lightly sour, lightly bitter. Soft carbonation, full body. Maybe lacks some bitterness and character, but it’s a good beer.

Has a healthy golden glow but very little head and a light malt character. Relatively easy to drink with a carbonation.

Bottle: Almost clear, deep golden with a orangey sheen, stable creamy off-white foamy layer, honeyish and hoppy nose with a light tinge of vegetables; spicy sweetish-bitter flavour,relatively light bodied, but pretty soft; getting drier and hoppier towards the malty-bitter finish. Just O.K. ...

Cask version. Good bodied ale with a slightly sweet aroma and also a bitter-sweet taste. Retried at Moon Under Water in Manchester during the Wetherspoon Beer Festival in late 2019, and was the same.

A pale beer with a nice, thick head. The balance of flavours was quite pleasant but it could have done with being a bit strong. With a bit more strength of flavour it might have been a bit more memorable. Though it did have a nice, vanilla-esque aftertaste.

From cask at Turnhouse. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small, creamy and white head. Aroma is mild fruity, citrusy and crisp hoppy. Light acetone note, apples, fruity, bitter and dry. Lingering fruity to a dry and bitter finish.

Bottled 500ml. -from Bieres Cultes, Paris. Shared with Marko and luttonm. Dark golden coloured, small off-white head, grainy bready nose. Malty, acidic yeasty and moderate grainy with notes of fruits. Rather watery finish. Nothing special here.

Cask at the Claude Du Vall (JDW), Camberley - 27/10/12. Clear pale golden with a thin white film atop the glass. Very subdued nose, light fruit and malt, trace of caramel. Taste develops beyond the nose. Fruits, caramel, buttery diacetyl notes, pinch of spice. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation leading to a bitter finish. Below average fayre.

Cask at The Greyhound (JDW), Maidenhead. Pale straw with a tight cream head; fruity aroma; sweet and fruity flavour - greengage perhaps, and lightly bitter; with a sweet, but clean, finish. Far better than I expected.
