Long day of dog walking, ice cream eating and beer hunting - which was particularly successful. Family barbecue in the evening with a few Brewdogs before, a nice SA shiraz with the chicken and sausage and this beer served in a big wine glass while catching up with the Olympics. Very hazy pour and a huge nose of malt. The taste was (as expected) massive and rich malt, with carbonation and even more malt. Ok, this one isn't for me, one dimensional and a bit too much.

Hazy amber brown beer, a few pale tan bubbles don't come close to ever being a head. Light palate, semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Tangy malts, trace of chocolate, slightly more than a trace of smoke. Little bit of caramel coming through as the beer warms up. Light finish. An old skool and somewhat smoky barleywine but it's okay.
