Cask at the London Drinker BF. Clear yellow pour with a light film. Grassy, floral hops on the nose. Light straw flavor, some citra, very grassy. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Sticky hop finish, mildly sweet, with lingering earth and hay bitterness. Excellent stuff.

Hazy darkish amber beer, residual white head. Light semi dry palate. Sweetish toffee malt with sweetish red fruits and mild sherbetty orange!! Finishes semi dry. Intriguing tangy fruity hops that are a little sweet. Nice!

Bottle at the Kernel Brewery. It pours cloudy red-brown with a thin foamy beige head. The nose is resin, red berry, orange, grapefruit and lemon. The taste is orange, mango, lemon, lime, resin, rye, pine, red berry, toast, hay and grass, with a long bitter-citrus finish. An Interesting beer that’s really enjoyable to drink.

50cl Bottle at Dutch RB Meeting, a gift from nate2g, thanks Nate! Dark brown colour, small off white head. Aroma of hard roasted malts, green hops, pine, liquorice (drop), wybertjes/laurel. Flavour is bitter, hard roasted malts, green stuff, pine, hops, very dry, liquorice. Light to medium bodied. Different, but a bit too harsh on the bitterness imo.

Thanks to Evin and Toby for this unexpected treat! Cloudy amber red beer, short lived creamy tan head. Slight soft palate, moderate carbonation. Fresh hops on the nose. Creamy smooth malt with a whisper of lacto caramel sweetness. Trace of rye spice. Fresh piney hops turning to a little marmalade and then a bitter grapefruit kick. Some orange citrus underneath. Semi dry smooth finish with long lingering bitter aftertaste. Superior!

Half pint, hand pulled cask ale at Bree Louise. Deep, dark brown coloured body. Shiny surface. Resinous hops to the nose with a drop of sweet malts behind. Delicate flavour of caramel malts in fine interplay with dark fruits. Solid bitter end with a rhubarb touch (London, 19.03.2011).

Half, cask at Bree Louise, Euston. Near-clear golden. Naked on the surface, spotty lacing at the glassware. Floral fruity aroma. Fruity shells in flavour with a very dry bitter end. Easy to drink, but it does not feel too thin on the swallow. Drinks quite well (London, 19.03.2011).

Bottled 500ml (BB 12/2012)
Bought from The Kernel Brewery. The bottle leaked on my bag and lost the most of CO2 and 1/3 of content on the way to home. My first beer from Redemption. Dark brown color, not much head (thanks to a leak, I suppose). Roasted chocolate aroma with nice hoppyness. Medium-bodied. Starts sweetish caramel, raisiny then strong hoppy bitterness with leads to long lingering bitterness in the aftertaste. Really interesting and pleasant strong "mild". Needs rerating sometime in the future.
