Mr Winter's Peach Tea Pale Ale Bottle courtesy of Ian Harrison, cheers Ian and consumed at home Monday 7th June 2021 listening to Ezra Furman on 6Music, just had Chorizo and Mozzarella Gnocchi Bake. Pours light gold with a light haze a white bubbly head atop. Really nice delicate light peachiness on the nose and equally delicate but really summery and refreshing. Sat drinking this completely by chance but next to our peach tree. Nice soft moutheel, light bitterness, light, perky and fresh.

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - thanks a lot!]. Clear, dark brown colour with ruby shimmer and huge, thick, fluffy, moderately lasting and lacing, off-white head. Initially rather grainy, roasty dark malty aroma, fragmentary hints of dark bread, tobacco, coffee, dark chocolate, earthy hoppy overtones with a grassy touch of weed, moss, tea, fruity whiffs of red berries, some nutty aspects, Brazil nut, chestnut. Taste is roasty dark malty, minimally diluted notes of coffee, dark chocolate, dark caramel with subtle sweetness, a nutty touch of Brazil nut, chestnut, earthy, leafy hoppy hints of tobacco, tea, a fruity touch of red berries. Watery texture, dry palate, medium to coarse, prickly carbonation. Quite watery, minimally overcarbonated (probably my fault - should have drank it as fresh as possible, immediately after receipt), nevertheless rather beefy, a good deal of (slightly diluted) malt flavours - pretty decent.

Bottle courtesy of Ian Harrisoni, cheers mate! Consumed at home Saturday 3rd April 2021 listening to Billy Nomates self titled album. Finally cooking our Prawn, Clam, Scallops, Feta and Tomatoes. Pours dark brown with a light beige head. Milky coffee, sweetness throughout though certainly not too sweet, creamy also. A little thin at times, a little tangy fruit. It's ok

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers Graham!]. Clear, chestnut colour with ruby shimmer and average to huge, thick, firm, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, off-white to beige head. Toasty, earthy nutty, malty and floral, leafy, fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of Brazil nut, hints of red berries, a minimally waxy, hoppy touch as well. Taste is toasty, nutty, dark malty malty, leafy, earthy, fruity hoppy, hints of Brazil nut, a touch of (not so) dark chocolate, hints of forest fruit, dark berries, diluted elderberry, maybe even a touch of dried mushrooms. Watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally dry palate, fine and soft carbonation. I simply like the style: mostly beers with character at low abv - and this is another good representative.
