Cotteridge 2 tasting. Black beer. Lasting tan head. Chocolate sponge flavour bit one dimensional but the dark chocolate is good. Decent dark choc stout.

Tasted from the tap on the 08/02/2016. This is the kind of juice I like at night! Very hoppy and fruity beer. Finish is medium dry and bitter. Very well balanced hop combination. Next one please!

Golden colour with a light haze. Typical ’west coast’ aroma with a certain caramel malty sweetness. The sweetness of nectarines and honey is balanced by resinous and slightly piney hop.

100 ml sample. Black with amber highlights. Lots of coffee in the nose, malts, vanilla, desert-like notes. Some hops early on. The taste has coffee too, roasty but not too much, just enough alcohol, solid bitterness. Pretty good, but not mindblowing. (backlog 17-JAN-2016).
