Tap at Church Street. Pretty nice Wee Heavy. Perfect ABV to be big but not oppressive. Rich malts. Good.

Pint can sent by Church Street for my comment. Pours out very malty-smelling, as expected, with caramel roasts, or as they would say on the Isles, toffee roast. A warm and friendly brown with a little bit of haze. The foam remains pretty stable at the top. and I can already note some of the earthiness of the British hops. The taste is similarly sweet, like a toffee, but not overly so. There is plenty of that English hop to keep it in check. The mouthfeel is slightly lighter than one would expect for a 7% abv beer. So it feels as though I can go on with the rest of my day once dinner is cooked and eaten.
