Bottle, purchased at brewery, consumed at home.17/5/15 Pours very flat, with virtually no head, and vaguely cloudy, and a small amount of sediment left. Not much aroma to speak of either. Cloying like you would expect a 15% beer to be. Initial flavour of blackberries & schnapps, with a honeyish aftertaste.

Bottle from Falstaff brewery consumed at home, Sunday 22nd February 2015 Hazy golden, flattish appearance, with just a tiny white rim. Hugely sweet beer, lots of honey a tiny little bit of vinegar on nose. Tastes like homebrew, pretty rough homebrew, banana, honey and dab of vinegar, far too sweet. Not great. A5 A3 T4 P2 Ov9 2.3
