Two Towns Downs At Home Beers #6 of 6 (Second Night). Last of the half dozen, the only one that is a collaboration, and the strongest of the lot. In terms of the latter comment it doesn't feel that way in taste, although has aspects of its strength. Its rather dense textured sugary-woody dryness on the buds, on a dark-malty base feels like it should be blander than it actually is. I enjoyed this one despite being on the understated 'stout' side for me. It's booziest in its aroma, although lightly so here.

Two Towns Downs At Home Beers #5 of 6 (Second Night). Another second good one of the night, this time its huge caramel aroma before I even supped this one indicated so. A hazy brown colour, despite strong salts, chocolate and caramels are abundant, and although it comes across somewhat dense, it's not particularly sticky-sweet in texture, feeling more smooth than expected. It has a good mouthfeel for it.

Two Towns Downs At Home Beers #4 of 6 (Second Night). Three more brews starting with a good one, you can tell with a first sip! Hazy golden, the wheat part is good, especially in its taste where yeasts and mild banana are apparent. This gets more stated in its aftertaste and in its aroma too. September always ends, but sadly this excellent beer will too.

Two Towns Downs At Home Beers #3 of 6 (First Night). Last of the first evening of brews, and this black stout has an initial grittiness about it, but as the palate adjusts becomes a little more smooth in texture and taste. Never fully stated with its roastedness, there's nevertheless enough here to enjoy, coupled with a very lightly salted marine influence.

Two Towns Downs At Home Beers #2 of 6 (First Night). Second of six cans from TTD. This black brew with no head was a little more strength infused than expected from something not at imperial levels, it does impact the taste somewhat. Nevertheless the sweetness of the strawberry can be found, withe blueberry a little on the sour side, enjoyed with hints of chocolate in aroma.
