Bottle courtesy of Alec, cheers Alec. Consumed at home usually having a beer or a Monday night but hey it is Loz’s birthday, Monday 14th November 2016 Pours mid brown with a light reddy hue and a slim white filmy head. A bit thin but it’s not bad at all, a little malty, fruity with a tanginess. Ok. A6 A4 T6 P2 Ov13 3.1

Bottle from a giftpack my brother gave me- cheers! Clear amber-brown with a thin beige head and a rather prickly fizz. Wheat,malt and pepper at first with red berries, tobacco and leather developing. Dry finish. Grew on me. By far the nicest of the Discworld brews I’ve had so far, although it has to be said that it’s not up against much opposition.

Bottled. A hazy brown beer with a huge brown head. The aroma has notes of chocolate, roasted malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, chocolate, and caramel, leading to a dry finish.

Opaque and subtle red color with a fine tan head. Ok lacing. Looks nice. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Medium light body and an average carbonation. Mellow sweetness and a moderate bitterness. Chocolate, coffee, some toffee and mild roasted. A quite decent mild ale.

330ml bottle from Ales by Mail. Out-of-date freebie so probably not in the best condition. Pours dark hazed brown, minimal head. Aroma is herbal, dark malts. Taste herbal, earthy, dusty, lightly sour.. sinkpour I’m afraid.

Bottled (AbM). Deep reddish murky brown colour with a beige cmall head. Aroma is chocolate, mild liquorice, dry dark fruits, some roasted malts as well as some toffeeish notes. Flavour is mostly dark dry fruitiness, some chocolate and mild mild liquorice to it. Quite dry as for the palate.
