Bottle in a mixed case posted out from the brewery Oct 08, consumed 28-10-08 Pours hazy golden in colour with off white head. The taste is instantly refreshing, ginger kicks in first with a slow burn then the crispness of the lemon nips in and the resulting beer has an almost tonic like fruity dry character, very summery but still bloomin’ marvellous in late October. Once again a lovely beer.

Bottle, thx to fonefan. As Stony Lane Medium Cider, 6.5% ABV. It pours a slightly hazy yellow-golden body with a minimal white head. Applesour aroma with cellar and citrus notes. Gives a fresh impression. In the mouth it’s astringent, dry and sourish, with flavors of citrus, cellar and sour or maybe unripe apples. Asting finish with apples and citric flavors. Not a world class cider in my book, but sure drinkable and refreshing. (080824)

Bottle, thx to fonefan. It pours a semi-clear dark golden, with a small off-white head. Subtle aroma of caramel and fruity hops. Caramel-sweet flavor with a nice hop-profile and a bitter finish. Quite full-bodied and dry in the mouth. A quite simple beer, but well-tasting and moreish. (080824)

Bottle, thx to fonefan. A clear, copper-colored beer with lots of floaties, and a beige head. Dusty, charcoal-like, burnt aroma with a bonfire-like sourness. Medium-bodied and dry in the mouth, with flavors of bonfire, burnt malt and coffee. Some coffee-like bitterness. It’s fun that they are re-creating old reciepes, but I didn’t care too much for the resulting beer. Too charcoal-ish. (080823)

Bottle, thx to fonefan. It serves a clear, deep ruby body with a small beige head. Coffee and roasted malt on the nose with butterscotch as well. Slightly sourish flavor with bonfire and charcoal, as well as roasted malt, coffee and butterscotch. Medium to full body and a charcoal-ish finish with some sweetness. Way too dry and charcoal-ish, quite uninteresting I think. (080823)

Bottle in a mixed case posted out from the brewery Oct 08, consumed 25-10-08 This beer pours more dark brown than amber with large off white head. Aroma is very malty but both Loz and I picked up a distinct but very nice smokiness to both the aroma and flavour of this beer, in fact it was a little like smoked or burnt coffee. Smooth chocolate and pleasant roastiness complete the picture, its another great beer from Old Chimneys.
