330ml bottle from Ales by Mail
Bottled 29.01.13, BBE 29.06.13 - Pours dark brown with a large foamy head. Aroma of chocolate malts, hints of roastiness, berries, ripe fruits, coffee and nuts. Taste is smooth, fruity and nutty with hints of caramel, chocolate, coffee and toffee. Finish is carbonated, sweetish, caramely and nutty with notes of chocolate, toffee, berries and ripe fruits. Almost tastes like a candy in a liquid form. Not your typical brown ale, but still quite good.

33cl bottle from Sourced Market. Hazy mid gold orange lasting white head. Bit of mushroom, hop aroma, vegetal. Slightly perfumed and hoppy in the mouth. An odd wit. Even some nuttiness on the finish. Some Turkish delight even. Strange beer.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at the Cock Tavern, Hackney. Pours mostly clear gold with a moderate, frothy white head. Gorgeous, enticing aroma, dripping with cat pee, mango, grapefruit and tangerine. Light sweet flavor with an adequate pale malt base, above which the hops sing out: plenty of orange and lightly tangy tangerine, a bit of lemon and grapefruit, some lime and papaya, hints of hay. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Very faint hoppy resins to finish, lightly sweet, biscuity pale malts, light urine, pine needles and lots more fresh, zippy citrus fruits. Wonderful. Definitely one of Pressure Drop’s best beers yet.

330ml bottle. Dark brown colour with huge, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Herbal hop aroma, notes of spruce, a nuttily touch in the background, hints of green wood. Taste is initially herbal hoppy, some spruce, later malty with a backgroundish nuttily touch, slightly minerally; prickling carbonation. Sadly the carbonation takes away portions of taste from the tongue.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Duke’s. This one was a prodigious gusher. It also hosts a fleet of floaties, and the aggressive effervescence keep the bits bobbing all around in the glass. It’s quite a site though not especially appetizing. The beer itself is otherwise fairly clear, somewhat orange-gold, with a large, off-white foam head. The aroma is odd, kind of like rubber and melon, perhaps some orange citrus and bubblegum. It tastes alright, some moderate sweetness, vaguely bready malts, tangerine, still some rubber notes, little bitterness, hay. Light bodied with high, explosive carbonation. Lightly sweet and oily to finish, maybe some suggestions of root vegetables, drying bread, faint orange and tangerine, touches of rindy bitterness, a bit more hay. The beer’s character is a little messy and the poor condition brings it down further.
