Smoked eel has long been a specialty of the Siphon restaurant. The eels are smoked in a hut right beside the brewery. We huddle around the ashes on Autumn brew-days.

Cendre is a blend of styles from a variety of countries, with the chocolate malt character of a British stout, the seductive melon and pine profile of an American IPA and the drying citrus qualities of a Belgian Saison.

Tap. Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Slightly muddy, plum red. Glossy topped, foamy, beige head. Nose has well roasted malt. Blackberry. Caramelised citrus. Taste is fruity bitter, with a malt sweetness. Medium body. Foamy carbonation. Lightly drying. Light, citrus bitterness to finish. More black IPA than anything for me. Nice beer, though.

Very high dark cream to tan head over deep ruby-brown beer. End of bottle solid yeast. Roasted, lots of ureum, melanoidins, straw, Hessian sacks, baking oil. Ultra dry, ashy, burnt flavours, completely different from the nasal aromas. Ends seriously hopbitter. Very stable creamy head with ditto feel; beer is ultra dry, but slick and well-carbonated. Despite the utter difference between nose and taste, I like this very much. 8/4/8/3/17
