Don’t snigger at this blonde with attitude. Light-hearted with a fun name and a bubbly nature, Slasher also has a wheaty kick that lingers long after a gulp. Slasher is a real thirst-quencher when cold from the fridge. Or go traditional by not bothering to have it chilled. We like it whatever the temperature – it’s the favourite of the Piddle Brew Crew!

Cask@GBBF 2011. Golden colour, with a small white head. Aroma is clean maltiness along with some floral, fruity and a bit wooden notes. Flavour is bready malts, some fruity and floral hoppy notes along with mild wooden and resiny notes in the finish. Surprisingly high abv, although it feels much easier when you drink it.

50cl bottle from Naked Grape, Alresford. Amber with a ring of white head; floral aroma; cidery flavour, as if made from some sweetly perfumed dessert apples; then some meadow hay giving a gentle bitterness and a dry finish with a touch of rasping alcohol. Rather unbalanced.

Bottle at the Half Moon, Windlesham - 03/09/12. Pale golden with a thinnish white head that retained pretty well resulting in lots of lacing. Pale malt nose backed up by grain, wheat, grass and some spice. Taste matches the nose, hops come into play which to me tasted of the noble variety. Medium bodied with fairly lively carbonation, perhaps a touch too much, leading to a dry finish.

Bottle from Microbar, Manchester. Pale gold pour with a white head. Aromas of heather, vanilla, peach and a distinct whiff of pepper. I seemed to pick up a strong peppery flavour or that could’ve been down to the crisps I was munching whilst drinking this. Other than the peppery action there’s a splash of fruit in there too. Spicy finish....had to have been the crisps.

On gravity at Swindon BF 30/10/08. Golden coloured with a slight white head. Aroma of sweet malts, hay and grassy hops. Flavour was sweetish, with some floral hopping and a decent dry finish. Good.
