Gold with a frothy, white head. Pineapple and lychee aroma. Taste is bitter and slightly chalky. Finishes bitter with lingering orange zest. Light bodied, texture very mildly watery, dry, a touch citric. Goes down easy without being particularly refreshing. Decent.

Virtually black with a fleeting, foamy head. Fudge and pumpkin pie aroma. Taste is sweet and artificial with the feel of flavored soda. Finishes slightly bitterer with a dose of lingering pumpkin. Body is fizzy, thinnish, and not particularly inviting given the style. Failed experiment.

Can direct from Tempest. It pours super dark ruby - brown with a quickly dissipating yellow tan head. The aroma is rich maltage, vanilla, whisky fudge, toffee crisp, dried fruits, toasted fruit cake, pain au raisin, custard, toasty malts, marzipan, toasty brown sugar and heady whisky notes. The taste is slick, thick, bitter - sweet, toothy, chewy, whisky fudge, dried fruits & berries, fruit cake, Dundee cake, toasted nut, fruity whisky, warming booze, tangy, juicy and muted liquorice with smooth, warming finish. Fulsome body, fine carbonation and slick mouth feel. Heavy duty, but fun.

Dark, dark copper with a creamy, white head. Big toffee aroma, earthy, full of berry undertones, predominantly cherry. Taste is mildly bitter the whole way through, with slightly chalky, mineral-like overtones covering a rich, sweet malty body. Medium bodied, slightly oily, dry. Great character for the current 4.4%
