Canterbury brewers single hop pale ale bramling cross 4.6% clear rich gold lasting white head. Hedgerow hop aroma. Wow really hoppy but still balanced. The pale ale has enough guts to carry the hops. Good bramling cross blackcurrant and bramble fruit finish. Good example of this hop no doubt. really tasty. 3.7/5

Cask handpull at The Foundry Canterbury. Aged wee heavy 7.9% really deep amber colour lots of lychee and raspberry on aroma strawberry jam. Warming strong in mouth and then this whisky dryness on the finish. I am in awe. One of the best kent beers for a long time. Good hops too. Whisky finish 4.2

Bottle given to me by Harrisoni - big cheers Ian! Hazy dark red-brown beer, short pale tan head. Light sourness on the nose. Surprisingly light crisp palate with fine carbonation. Nicely judges barreling. Not too woody with just a pleasant amount of vanilla sweetening the malt. This is well integrated with the mildy tart fruits with raspberry slightly to the fore. Not tasting huge amounts of whisky - guessing that it has morphed in to these interesting fruit flavours. Semi dry finish, a little minerals. Nicely done and effortlessly drinkable for a big beer. I have high hopes for this brewery.
