Bottle from the Co-op, Cirencester Services. Pours a crystal clear light golden colour with a thinnish throthy white head. Aromas of floral hops and light citrus notes. Taste has more of the floral hops and lemony citrus notes. There’s also some biscuity notes and a nice earthy hop bitterness on the finish. Medium body with a smooth and slightly oily mouthfeel. Nice refreshing thirst quencher. Good

Bottle from Beers Of Europe. Black body with ruby highlights and a thin beige head. Faint lacing. Aroma of raisins, liquorice and coffee. Flavour of treacle and blackcurrant. Medium body with a slick texture. Very fizzy. This is very good. Less carbonation would improve it but the rich flavours come together beautifully in this.

Adding in my 300 Beers To Try ticks because I want to see how they impact my stats and some of them I will never see again. Will however re-rate them when practical. Went on numerous golf weekends where this was the one non-lager option.

Bottle from Tesco, Exmouth. Gold pour with nice white head. Malty, bready and hoppy aroma. Taste is similar with some vanilla and citrus notes. It holds together fine but gets a bit boring after a while.

Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a small cream head. A boozy aroma of raisins mixed with chocolate. In the mouth it has the sweetness of dark fruits and toffee, a biscuit flavouring of malts, and the alcoholic warmth of rum. Raisins again in the finish, and an overall warming glow. This is a belter of a beer – and is dangerously drinkable !
