Description
Alpha Delta Brewing was established in September 2019 in Newcastle Upon Tyne by Ross Holland. With over 5 years of brewing experience behind him, Ross decided to create something BIG. In October, Aether and Aion were released as the first two big seasonal beers to kick Alpha Delta off. Now he plans to release even more incredible big beers. Very exciting times.

Keg at Fierce Bar, Aberdeen. It pours crazy cloudy orangey - gold with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, juicy, bright, peach, nectarine, fruit cordial, heavy and oily, sugary, candied peel, boozy and oily. The taste is slick, thick, oily, juicy, boozy, heavy, bitter - sweet, piney vibes, green, weedy, dank, sugared almonds, brioche, sponge cake, oily and filthy with a slick finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Big and punchy. Fun stuff anyhow.

Nothing really that great. Maybe too young, overly alcoholic for the percentage

Black beer, decent beige head. Malty chocolate aroma with maybe a little dried fruit. Tastes of chocolate, the fruit again, toasty malt and it really tastes its strength. Rich smooth but not as big or complex a flavour as you might expect from the strength.
