Cloudy red with a pink head. Ginger and black currants. Sour light ginger and light berry. Not bad, just a little unusual.

Dry and sour, this is not a stout. Wrong in so many ways, I have lost what respect I had for this brewer. A total drain pour

Can purchased at the brewery and brought to Antigua for unknown reasons - but it survived the trip very well. Pours with muddy red brown body and modest pinkish foam, smells of dry fruity coffee in somewhat well balance. Flavour is bitter plum which is numbing the sweet barley, turning at all into a bland mess. Nothing to love or hate here, just meh sadly. I'm not sure how the sour plum counteracted the porter but it did, making this inoffensive and sadly uninteresting.

Nice blackish purple body and modest light beige pink foam. The aroma is stout barley and sour cherries working reasonably well together, not amazing, but okay. Flavour is sour cherry indeed with a bit of stout buried in the back, but it's all unbalanced and too watery. Not exceptionally awful, but a little awkward. I can see where this is going though and hope they work out the kinks.

Smells of hoppy molasses, oily in the right amount, very well done. Has good black body with beige foam on top. Flavour is earthy chewy motor oil, smooth and brilliant mouthfeel. This is excellent, well balanced, very drinkable.

The aroma is very soft chai with some sugar. Has mellow gold body with little foam. Flavour is bright floral potpourri and chai, actually floral in a good way. Crisp mouthfeel. This is refreshing, decent.

Smells of soft wheat dough and vague cranberry, has a blondish pink body with little foam. Flavour is bright cranberry with soft wheat dough. Crisp mouthfeel. This is a nice mix, mellow and refreshing.
