Can shared at the chriso and Ruth pre GBBF Shindig 2016 - London. Day 1. Pours clear yellow with a frothy, white head. The nose holds pale grains, light citrus, cereal. Medium sweet flavour with notes of sugary pale bread, hay. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, with further cereal, light alcohol warmth. Not bad.

The great ChrisO pre GBBF gathering. Can. Bright clear paleish gold beer. Fluffy pale cream colour head. Light but very sweet malts, a touch of honey. Sweet floral mid, candy fruits. Light finish brings modest spice. Yeah it’s pretty sweet but it’s not as bad as the ratings it’s getting.

Semi clear orange-ish amber color and a khaku head with good retention. Decent lacing. Taste is pure alcoholic paint thinner. Disgusting. Drain pour. 8.0 ABV is obvious.

Nel gusto al naso c’è il sapore forte dell’orzo tostato che sopravanza tutti gli altri. L’intensità olfattiva è più che normale e la persistenza olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello è di schiuma cremosa, aderente, dalla buona tenuta e con merletti a contornare il vetro come finale. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. La carbonazione è media. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è pieno. L’amaro è deciso. L’intensità gustativa è elevata e la persistenza gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono luppolate e di tostato. Il finale è lungo, secco e asciutto. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. L’aroma in bocca riporta sentori di miele, cioccolato, caffè, frutta secca, pane tostato. Alcol presente non invadente.
