Beer number eight at the Great British Winter Beer Festival 2025. Glowing beer, tasting quite robust with a hop-malt balance, but not the texture to match, this is quite soft. Very mild sweetness.

1/3 cask pour at GBBF Winter. Amber pour with 1/2 finger sturdy White head. Malty aroma, woody, nutty. Taste is more of the dry malts with some leathery notes and a dry finish. This tastes like a walk through the woods in the late fall.

Cask at Hops, Crewe. Pours golden amber with a small off-white head and good lacing. The aroma is pretty subdued, but there’s floral hops and tropical fruit. In the mouth the first sip has a slight sweetness, but that it quickly overwhelmed by hoppy bitterness. Flavour has floral hops, alcohol and gooseberries with a touch of melon after a while. Alcoholic strength lasts to give s boozy finish. This is reasonable enough but it’s a bit rough.

Not black like its name, but getting there. A roasted malt porter at an easy strength and texture to match. Vanilla best in aftertaste.

Bottle from Chester Beer and Wine. Light cloudy gold, small white head, decent retention. Aroma has a graininess, citrus and flora. Taste has a doughy and light toastiness in the malts, some toffee, grassy and light floral hops leaving a modest bitterness. Light to medium bodied, nicely carbonated. A little bit malty for a blonde but as a trad ale generally its quite nice.

Bottle from Chester Beer and Wine. Clear amber brown pour with small off white head. Quite a fruity apple and citrus aroma with hint of spice. Taste has a zesty orange and lime, bready malts, tingly spice and carbonation in finish. Light to medium bodied in keeping with the style. Well balanced and quite tasty.

Bottle from Chester Beer & Wine. Clear copper with a small white head, good retention. Aroma of toffee, quite fruity with berry notes, spice, light floral notes. Taste is malty at first with toffee and light bread notes, then hops kick with notes of pear, berries, spice, floral bitter finish. Light bodied so flavours don't hang around too long but overall a good bitter and a nice example of the style.

Bottle from Chester Beer and Wine. Clear chestnut with moderate sized off-white head. Malts, dried fruit, coffee and chocolate, brown sugar, some spice and sweetness in the finish. It has a reasonable malty depth to be fair with some layering of flavour without being too rich and losing its session drinkability A bit under-rated I think.
