Catching up on some paper ratings. Sample courtesy of Grumbo. Cheers. Aroma of a glass of wine rather than an ale. Not sure I would have been confident it was an ale in a blind smell test! It was very sweet bordering on the unpleasant side. It was interesting but not sure I would have it again

25/11/2021. Growler sample courtesy of MarkoNm. Pours clear bright amber gold with minimal head. Aptly named, a grape ale that's much more grape than ale, but with a subtle golden ale element behind its sweeter dessert wine like character. Quite drinkable though super sweet and not something I'd look for more of.

Growler from the brewrey. Clear amber, foamy white head, nonlasting. Gentle nose, sweet grape, sweet white wine. Solid sweetness upfront, sweet white wine feeling. Hints of bitterness and slightly tart in the finish. Lasting aftertaste. Light, no trace of alcohol. Too sweet for me, but not bad.
