Очень приятное пиво. Невероятные сухофрукты, прям есть курага четкая, немного меда. Чутка не хватает тела, слишком большую легкость позволяет пиво в этой стилистике. Но очень интересно всё равно.

250ml bottle [#01706]. Opalescent, ruby colour with small, creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white to beige head. Malty and woody aroma, notes of caramel, some oak, a touch of grapes, grape sugar. Taste is sweet, caramel malty and slightly woody, minimally floral and fruity hoppy, notes of caramel, some honey, a touch of marzipan, rose petals, red berries, blue grapes, icing sugar, grape sugar; a minimally warming, alcoholic touch in the finish.
Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth, soft and silky, minimally cloying palate, fine, dense, soft carbonation.
Quite sweet, not much depth, some nice subtleties, though - enjoyable.

Bottle picked up from Hereford Beer House, had this at home watching a film called Sirat, we had Sausage Stuffed Giant Pasta Shells for tea, Friday 13th March 2026, after an hour out in the garden removing the stones off the grass that the tractors had inadvertently put there in snow piles. This beer pours a deep golden actually it's more amber-brown colour looks lovely. Nice aroma but as expected quite complex, with clear barrel notes and vinous notes also caramel and dark dried fruit such as raisins and figs and a little leather. On the palate it is smooth and rounded, the aforementioned dark fruits and soft caramel come to the fore. Nice sweetness but this is balanced by a woody twang and a warmth, those vinous fruity touches come through again, and there's a lingering wine-like note. Lovely stuff, everything that I expected and more. Score 8.3

250ml bottle, #03148. Clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma of very sweet caramel and dried/candied fruits, raisins, figs. Taste is also extremely sweet, cloying, but very nice flavours of dried fruits, figs, raisins, caramel, honey, a bit of spice, gentle warming boozy finish. Medium bodied, very smooth.
Very nice but the sweetness is so cloying, to me it felt worse than a lot of modern pastry stouts. A shame as aside from that it's actually a lovely beer.
