Bottle share at Chris & Ruth’s pre- gbbf shindig, 2015. Amber pour with a white head. Pineapple and toffee aroma with the toffee continuing into the flavour. Too sweet for me.

Bottle at ChrisO Pre-GBBF, many thanks to the Haddock of Black. It pours clear amber with a small off-white head. The nose is watery, wet wood, leaf, grass and leather. The taste is crisp, bitter, toasty grain, bread, cereal, light spice, wood and leather with a short, dry finish. Light body and fine carbonation. A bit wishy washy. Simple, but not terrible. Good country tick though!

500ml bottle @ Shrewsbury Bottle Share, June 15, courtesy of Señor Haddock. Pours deep amber with an off-white head. Brewed with hops grown on the Rock of Gibraltar, although the hop presence seems modest at best. More of a woody malt character with a light bitter edge. Not the best beer of the evening.

500ml bottle: BBD 28 Oct 15. Brought back from Gibraltar by my father for me, I in turn shared it with three friends at the June Shrewsbury Bottle Share meeting. Amber body with a copper hue, an off-white head sat proudly on top. Slight malt lead to a pretty boring blend to be honest. Wanted and expected more flavour and character from the label build up. The Gibraltar hops must have been grown in a window box or something similar as their influence is negligible to say the least. Disappointing.
