Sights & Swills Summer Holiday Beer#65. PONTORSON. Last beer before a tremendous Friday night thunderstorm and downpour. Full-bodied pleasant beer in the palate, with a gentle appealing hoppiness.

Sights & Swills Summer Holiday Beer#68. PONTORSON. Bought next door to a working flour windmill. Deeper golden with plenty of strength, but its sweetened hoppy taste with plenty of sugars is really appealing. It's a tad more boozy in aroma but this matters little.

Bottle from somewhere in France consumed at home Sunday 16th July 2017 whilst making a base curry sauce for future curry meals. Murky amber with a scummy off white head. Not really sure that this is an American Pale Ale but that is what the label says, the label is interesting its predominantly purple with what looks like a stoat or weasel on the front. A touch of lemon in what comes across as more of a tangy bitter or amber beer, it’s ok and I drank it all but not a big fan. A6 A3 T6 P3 Ov12 3.0

Hazy orange-amber color, small steady white head. Musty, cellary aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Some mango and orange fruityness, but otherwise quite dry and earthy. Watery finish with light grassy hops. Simple.

Hazy amber color, small steady white head. Aroma is stale/musty, some old hay. Light-bodied. Light orange jam, grass and wood. Bitterness is quite low and it’s not too fruity either. BB 05/2017 so not too old and in the ok condition, just boring.
