Taster at Blobfish 2019. Deep red/brown. Chocolate and berry nose. Almost nutty in flavour, alongside the richness. The cabernet really shows through. Yet another intriguing effort.

Can. Clear deep amber with a beige head that fades to a fat coat. Aroma is more medicinal than smoky with prunes, singed toffee. Medium bodied. Much roastier than it smelled and that brings the phenols back towards smoke. Dry finish is a bit salty with quite firm bitterness. Good. Would go well with raw pipis.

On tap. Deep amber. Nice smoke on nose. Delivers flavourwise with woody smokiness and some unusual spice. Almost savoury. Look forward to trying in cans.

On tap at Good Beer Week 2019 Launch Gala. Pours almost orange and opaque. Big coffee nose. Mixes that with lemon to make for a tasy and unusual sour.

On tap at Good Beer Week 2019 Launch Gala. Pours light golden. Rural nose. Quality dry saison. A bit more bitterness than the norm, and better for it. Far from inconspicuous.

On tap at Good Beer Week 2019 Launch Gala. Pours golden with tightly beaded head. Barnyard nose. Very subtle and balanced saison. Bit of straw and soft cheese flavours. Would love to sup this in a calmer setting.

On tap at Good Beer Week 2019 Launch Gala. Pours light yellow with thickly frothed head. Smells like a bucket of lemons. Tastes like lemon sherbert. Very effective indeed.
