Description
Trouble Brewing was founded in 2010 by three friends: Paul, Tom and Stephen. They gathered up all the money they could (about €45k between them) and borrowed the same from the bank with the help of a well prepared business plan. Then they set about putting together a functioning brewery.

Our sales grew steadily, the brewery got bigger and around 2014 it became clear that if we were going to take the brewery to the next level, we needed a bigger space and the assistance of an experienced brewer (In the meantime Tom left the project). Not long after we found a new premise in Kill, approx ten times the size of our original space. Mark Nixon joined us after a couple of years working and training in Redchurch Brewery in London.

In 2019, after ten years of hard work together setting up and building the brewery, Paul and Stephen decided it was time for a change. Paul moved on and a new era began in Trouble Brewing.

Deep amber color, small white head, gone before I could taste it, no lacing. Candied apple, caramel, floral hops, some orange, biscuit in both aroma and flavor. Thin oily mouthfeel, mild bitterness, sweet biscuit and apples. Finish is short. Forgettable.

Intense malty-choclate in the beginning. The mainpart is a bit light, milk-chocolate, but hints of water. The aftertaste is chocolate-malty, smooth, slightly bitter.
Nice and easy to drink, and for the 4.4% ok, but could be a bit more deeper and intense. --> 11/12/11/11
