Can bought from the brewery stall at Weybridge Farmers Market. Aroma has pineapple, citrus and malts. Opaque amber gold. Thick foamy white head. Light-medium bitter. Tart if watery citrus. Quinine. Cardboard and veg malts then make themselves known. Light. Thin. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Typical boring IPA that can't hide it's boring core.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Clapton Craft. Pours lightly hazed yellow-gold with a fluffy, white head. Lightly sweet with subtle tangy lemon, lean pale malts, nips of pine needles, grapefruit pith. Light bodied with active, massaging carbonation. Clean finish, further citric fruits, pith and rind. So so.

Can from Garson Farm Shop, West End. Aroma has dark chocolate, berries, liquorice and malty biscuits. Dark. Glossy. Opaque light cola brown in the light. Thick foamy beige head. Light-medium sour. A hint of bitterness and spicy core. Gingerbread. Berries. Malty chocolate. Light-medium bodied. Creamy, admittedly watered-down. Fizzy carbonation. Nice enough. Perhaps a generous score. The name could have been more specific... gingerbread Stout would sum it up.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Clapton Craft. Pours clear, deep brown with a big, creamy beige head. Lightly sweet with soft roast, big dry cinnamon character, subtle cocoa and nutmeg, slight berry tang. Light bodied with lively, massaging carbonation. Finishes with more pronounced cinnamon, vague dry cocoa, tangy raisins. Not bad in a wintery adjunct kind of way. This would fit right in at Pigs Ear.
