Description
St. Peter's is an independent brewery founded in 1996 by John Murphy in former agricultural buildings adjacent to St. Peter’s Hall in St Peter, South Elmham, near Bungay, Suffolk, England. Siting the brewery at St. Peter’s was ideal because of the excellent water quality from our own deep bore-hole. Locally malted barley is used, together with Kentish hops, to produce a range of classical beers (bitters, mild etc.) as well as some more unusual beers such as honey porter and fruit beer.

Fun fact: The oval shape of its signatory 500 ml bottle is based on an 18th-century gin bottle from Gibbstown, by the Delaware River near Philadelphia, USA.

Nice. Probably not the most popular sushi beer in the world.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours a wonderful deep red, with fine whitish foam. Aroma is intensely malty, caramel. Body is average, with limited carbonation. Taste is medium-high sweet, but not too redundant in the final, which remains average in intensity.

Dark brown, good coffee foam. Aroma: caramel and blue plum, jam, esters. Sweetish taste, caramel, malty, a little chocolate, plum, a little spicy, a little earthy bitterness on the finish, for an amateur.

(Bottle, 0.5l, from Alko, 202311234) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, dark chocolate, coffee and vanilla. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, dark chocolate, ash, vanilla and bitterness. Aftertaste was burnt, ashy and bitter. Nice.

Dark brown with a creamy, beige head that lingers. Aroma of honey, very dominant, with hints of Tootsie Roll. Interesting but less than enthralling. Taste is sweet, full of honey, with mild, roasted bitter undertones. Body to the light side of medium, decent chewiness. Too much honey in the mix and too one-dimensional. Drinkable in modest portions though.
