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.

Bottle, 4.7% at KØ10. Clear amber colour. The flavour is fruity, slightly sweet. A bit sugary, actually.

Small yellow head on caramel- amber beer. Madeira, fruits, and even the nose betrays the use of "other grains", especially the oats. The madeirisation of the beer returns in the flavour. Strangely enough, the sample is well inside the bbdate. The beer has an huge wheat load in the mouth, is pretty sweet nonetheless, and has a parsley-like flavour. Nearly medium bodied, but ends watery. Bit too young for such aging signs, I wonder about the way it has been preserved at Stonemanor.

[500ml bottle, gift from my wife (cheers!] Pale amber, slight white head, irritating half-hearted fizz. Hints of fruit in aroma. Bitter at first before metallic cardboard takes over. Some sweet malt. Poor.

Golden color, verging on tan. Extremely strong fruity hop aroma-it fills the room. Citrus fragrance. Bready, cereal like aroma from the grains. Dry, oats, just a touch of sweetness hidden in there somewhere. Slightly fruity with a touch of sweetness up front, but then dry, grainy flavor. It is breadlike and biscuity. Amazingly dry grainy finish with pretty good hops that linger there a long time after the grain wears off. Great finish. I thought it would be a touch sweeter and fruitier, and would not have complained, but as it is I find an amazingly dry, fully flavorful cereal like-beer. Great. Slightly sweeter as it warmed, and even better.
