Refreshing. Has a light wheaty character. Doesn’t smell very clean but is cleaner and brighter on the palate.

On tap at Popeye’s. Late fall brown ale 5% 26 IBU A purple brown with a big malty biscuit and earthy pepper aroma. Medium bodied and smooth. The taste is bitter biscuity malts, light caramel and pepper. Simple but well done for all that.

On tap at Popeye’s. First Strange Brewing beer I had. A deep brown/black with red highlights served in a massive snifter, the aroma was savoury chocolate fudge and fruits. Med-light bodied. The taste is tangy fudge, a little nutty and tart with some boozy heat going down. Alright but needs to keep improving. As it stands it is like a better than average homebrew.
