Cask @ Bacchus, Newcastle 230312
Copper brown...clear...thin white head
Aroma - spicy fruits...smoky...some barbecue sausage and juniper
Taste - Odd peppery fruity, smoky barbecue (not as much as a rauschbier), sweet caramel malt, woody smoke. background of bitter hops...It’s a well made beer....I tried to like it and had 2 attempts on the same night...but I didn’t
Palate - soft carb...thin to medium body...smooth...smoky aromatic palate. Finish dry smoky aromatic very longing.
Overall - I know it’s a well made beer...Interesting and unusual...but I simply didn’t like the taste....perhaps don’t like junipers....I think this beer is meant to divide opinion

Light haze on this pale god beer. Little white head. Very light palate with equally light carbonation. Mild tangy hop, orange and tangerine with some dried fruits. Semi dry finish. Okay but lacks any substance.
