Bottle from Waitrose. Clear copper coloured pour with decent looking off-white head. Biscuit, grain and grassy to hay aroma with a hint of spice. Taste of biscuit, bread, hint of Autumn fruit and quite a notable bitter herbal hop finish. Light+ bodied but has a certain slickness and soft carb, semi-drying. Good.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours a light murky dark gold with small consistent white head. Aroma of flora and grapefruit, some earthiness. Taste has citrus zest, grapefruit, earthiness, biscuit, moderate bitterness, semi-dry in the finish. Light to medium bodied, nice soft carbonation. This has more flavour than your average St Peters pale/blonde ale. Good mouthfeel to it in particular.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Black pour with small beige head but with a fairly fizzy carbonation so head doesn't dissipates after a while. Inviting aroma of roasted malt, berries and liquorice. Flavour wise the roast and liquorice is at the forefront with a raisin and blackberry fruitiness giving it balance. Very dry finish with hints of coffee. A little light in the body but as its quite rich this works well. Decent porter.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Clear amber-gold pour with small nice lasting off-white head. Interesting if slightly disconcerting aroma of peat, smoke, wood, sweet malts. Taste has sweet caramel malts at first and then peat and smoke comes in with a slight whisky edge and smoothness. Light bodied and the refreshing side of that gives a nice counter balance to the intense smokiness. Predominantly this is more of a smoked beer and should have a lot more of the whisky addition really. Nonetheless quite interesting and flavoursome for a St Peters beer.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Clear amber with small white head, good retention and lacing. Aroma is grainy, earthy, toffee, some spice. Taste is malty and hoppy as expected for the style. Not particularly fruity it has toasted malt, toffee, floral and herbal bitter noted finish. Medium bodied, tingly carbonation. It grew on me over time. Sweet floral resin meets herbal bitterness on a malty backbone isn't the most tastiest but it has a very good balance and body.

500ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Clear light amber pour with moderate sized white head, leaves a lovely soft top and some lacing. Aroma is semi-sweet biscuit malts, grassy, some toffee. Taste is biscuit, toffee, floral grassy bitterness with a light tang. At first it tastes quite astringent but once my palate got used to it was quite a nice biscuity beer. Light to moderate body, fairly smooth and soft carbonation. Far from prefect but I quite liked it.

500ml bottle from Beers of Europe, online. Pours dark reddish-brown, small light beige head which lasts quite well, nice lacing. Aroma is sweet with malts, caramel, berries. Taste is sweet, malty, toffee, earthy, pepper, hint of berry fruitiness but less than the aroma suggests. Dry mouthfeel, light to medium bodied. Its quite good.

The cough syrup bottle 0,5ltr: Hazy orange coloured brew with added grapefruit what gives the beer an slightly sour taste.
