Bottle from Tesco, Longford [181114]
Caramel ruby brown, clear, thin off white head dissipated
Aroma of soft toasted malts, touch of caramel, barely anything
Taste of very soft sweet caramel malts, very soft toasted malts, dab of red berries, hint of toffee. Very weak flavour, but what I’m straining to get is quite good.
Palate - Soft carb, thin body, soft sweet, slight bitterness, watery palate. Finish rapid but getting a hint of brown bread
Overall - It’s too attenuated and watery at the moment IMHO, almost diluted with water. It would be a lot better just ramping up the flavour that’s already there.
