Bottle from House Of Trembling Madness. Black body with a thin beige head. No visible carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of roasted malt and Marmite. Flavour of nuts, prune and dark chocolate. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. Easy to drink for the ABV but it’s not as complex as I hoped it would be.

Spoons Spring Fest 2025 - Roasted and sweet malty with notes of chocolate, fudge and caramel, getting the tart to sweet cherry chiming in (well balanced), soft smooth cask carb, chocolate and cherry accented lingering malty finish. Nice one.

Fog on the Tyne could probably be covered as Smog on the Wear if the Sunderland massive ever felt so inclined. I doubt they'll rekindle my suggestion. This same named brew is pretty bland. Hoppy but flavourless.

Near black with a frothy tan head. Has a mellow fruit muesli aroma, medium bodied with a soft roasted malt, milk chocolate and slightly tart cherry flavour, dry bitterness comes through in the finish
