Dark brown, ruby edges, thin tan head, good lacing
Aroma - Caramel malt, chocolate, well I’m getting tobacco because of the tasting notes given, dark fruit malts, smooth roast
Taste - Caramel, some soft spicy hops, chocolate, dark fruits, tobacco(!), quite complex, touch of smoke, very nice
Palate - Soft carb, thin to medium body. Finish as main flavour
Overall - Nice porter, some dark fruits in there, perhaps a little thin though

Yellow, hazy, dense white head
Aroma - Soft banana and clove, apricot, yeast, fruity, classical hefeweizen aroma, but nice and mellow
Taste - Lemon, lightly tart, yeast, soft wheat, soft peppery hops, fruity pale malts, creamy soft cereals, very good
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, very soft mouthfeel. Finish - really good quite intense wave of cereal wheat comes through in the finish
Overall - Really good Hefeweizen, decent flavour, nothing too strong, no harsh banana-clove notes, well balanced.
