Howling Hops brew bold, modern, uncompromised, flavoursome, generously hopped beers. All our beers are unfiltered, unpasteurised and suitable for vegans. We still stick to our early philosophy of ‘make some interesting beer’, although not every one is different these days. We have a core of 4 beers that we brew regularly, a couple of beers we brew seasonally and every 3 or 4 weeks we brew a different single batch beer.

Аромат не очень сильный, но свежий, скорее немного фруктовый чем банановый. Цвет бледнее чем обычно у пшенички. Вкус разочаровывает. Какой то непонятный горький травянистый оттенок. Бананов почти нет, какие то не очень свежие фрукты. Послевкусие тоже среднее, немного персиков, снова горечь от хмеля. В общем странно что на этикетке пиво предоставляется как классическая пшеничка, это вообще не так.

Аромат хороший, очень хмелевой, много цитрусовых и фруктовых ноток, немного сухой с намеками на еловые дела. Цвет дико мутный при этом яркий, пенка белая падает быстро. Вкус хороший но не для меня так как хмель и его сухость забирает на себя все фрукты. А так немного ананаса и манго все же есть но не сильно. При глотке сухости еще больше. Цитрусы на месте, немного персика с ананасом и даже ветки на длительном глотке.в В целом хорошо но немного не в моем стиле.

CBJ Bottleshare. Thanks to Fergus. Can. A mild hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft and fairly forward creamy sweetness. Soft pine into semi ripe citrus. A mild savoury skunk. Light candy fruits finish. Mildly drinkable but quite sweet.
