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.

0,5 bottle. Tradicionális szép és különleges (dombornyomott) üvegben, de már megújult címkével. Régóta meg akartam kóstolni, köszönöm a kollégámnak a lehetőséget! Kitöltve a sör nagyon szép- fekete mint az éj -, eleinte ujjnyi capuccino színű hab, ami kitöltés után is 1 mm vékonyan sokáig megmarad. Hidegen először "egyszerű" földes, kávés, kakaós visszafogott stout illat. Ez később egyre kávésabb lett. A színe és a test gyönyörű - sem a nap, sem a villany felé nem látszódik át semmi, van benne anyag rendesen :) Korty: nem túlságosan, de azért testes. Nem annyira "olajos" és tömény, inkább könyebben iható. Az alkoholt érezni rajta, de sokkal inkább az ízeket! Nekem annyira nem laktózos, sokkal inkább száraz, kemény kávés jegyeket érezni, ami nagyon stílushű volt. Melegedéskor azért egyre édesebb is lett. Az aroma közben csokoládésabb, édesebb, különlegesebb és a sör is ízesebb lesz. Szénsavassága kevés, de nem is hiányzik belőle. Kizárólag kehelyből kortyolgatva ivós sör. Kiemelkedő, nagyon nagy odafigyeléssel és tapasztalattal készült komoly stout sör. Gratulálok a főzdének, akik már régóta gyárták ezt a finomságot! Végére sok-sok utóíz érezhető, kiemelkedő sör! (Mikor elfogyott, az üres üvegbe beleszagolva egy komoly eszpresszó kávé illata fogadott :)

500ml bottle from Waitrose, in Bath, England. Looks like a liquor bottle. Pours a pitch black color with a tiny beige head and fair retention. Very little lacing. Very faint roasted aroma. Medium dark chocolate flavor with some vanilla/lactose notes, and barely a hint of coffee (thankfully). Very smooth and creamy. Not very roasty. Medium-heavy body. Very low carbonation. Not bitter. Better than I expected. And the 6.5% ABV is invisible. Good beer.
