Another unnumbered one which means it’s a permanent beer and, it seems, different from #005. Bottle, with a clear bottled on date (26/2), thanks. Clear dark amber with a large off-white head that lasts well. Aroma of singed toffee,toast, chocolate, wafty tropical and stone fruit notes. 7+ The prominence of those things is immediately reversed upon a sip - the hops are in the driver’s seat and the fat malty things are a bit obscured. Tropical and some stone fruit, some pepper, bitter oranges.

Bottle. Unnumbered and the first of their core range, apparently. Golden amber with a white head. Aroma of kumquats, grapefruit, pine, hay. Oily, moderate carbonation. Some light malty sweetness that doesn’t do much. Plenty of citrus and some under-ripe tropical notes kept well in check with pine and fairly strong bitterness. A touch of diesel. Not a refined or particularly original beer, but hops and a bit of grunt is OK too.

Bottle. Pale amber, 4 inches of loose white head. Passionfruit, melons and mandarins, light bread. 6+ Light bodied. High carbonation, but not as high as it first looked to be. Sweet with tropical and citrus fruit. A bit of pine and pepper creep in at the reasonably bitter finish. Even with that it’s getting towards a bit fruit punchy for me, but it’s certainly vibrantly hopped. Has a lot going for it for 3.5%.

Pours hazy amber with a small head.Nose shows banana, Belgian yeast characters, soft bready wheat-like notes.Very similar flavours. More yeast-derived characters that I’d associate with a Belgian yeast. Some soft sweet malt with more wheat-like aspects.
