Combined Harvest is a unique combination of brewing worts, or extracts from a variety of cereals. Most premium ales are brewed only using malted barley, but this multigrained beer has a unique multigrain blend of malted barley, oats, rye and wheat. Grainy tasting with a delightful floral start and finish.

Quote from the bottle "It has equal appeal to male and female drinkers. It goes well with MOST FOOD DISHES". Amazing. Pours amber, light haze, thin ring of white head. Sweet, slightly nutty aromas. Sweet taste. Sweet finish.

Clear golden beer with a thin bubbly head. Aroma is earthy with a slight touch of citrus. Flavour is light and lemony initially and the same earthiness of the aroma follows, coming from the malt and grains. There’s a slightly metallic tinge to the otherwise hoppy aftertaste. It’s not as interesting a beer as you might hope from the premise but it’s pretty decent all the same. I probably just about prefer this to the cask but I’d be interested to try the cask one again because my memory of it is quite different to this/how my rating on here describes it.

Bottle sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks kerenmk. Hazy golden with no head. Very oxidized and stale aroma of cardboard, honey and some rotten fruits. Sweet flavor of cardboard and honey. Medium-bodied. Really oxidized and unpleasant.

Aroma is malty, but not like in a lager. Rye and barnyard; plus fruity notes. Minimal head, amber colour. Lightly sour, lightly bitter. Soft carbonation, full body. Maybe lacks some bitterness and character, but it’s a good beer.

Has a healthy golden glow but very little head and a light malt character. Relatively easy to drink with a carbonation.

Bottle: Almost clear, deep golden with a orangey sheen, stable creamy off-white foamy layer, honeyish and hoppy nose with a light tinge of vegetables; spicy sweetish-bitter flavour,relatively light bodied, but pretty soft; getting drier and hoppier towards the malty-bitter finish. Just O.K. ...

Bottled 500ml. -from Bieres Cultes, Paris. Shared with Marko and luttonm. Dark golden coloured, small off-white head, grainy bready nose. Malty, acidic yeasty and moderate grainy with notes of fruits. Rather watery finish. Nothing special here.
