Description
Founder of Dot Brew, Shane Kelly, has made a name for both himself and his brand over the last few years through a keen passion and love for experimentation when it comes to his brews, most notably in the form of barrel ageing and hybrid styles. The Dublin based brewer has carved out quite a niche, developing a unique style and approach which has helped put Dot Brew at the forefront of the Irish Craft Beer scene. While the beers are brewed in various microbreweries in and around Dublin, they are then brought home to Dolphin’s Barn. The site is home to about 50 barrels in a small warehouse which Kelly refers to as his ‘spice rack’, with casks ranging from French oak, Mexican tequila and American bourbon, to name but a few.

Аромат и фруктовый и цтрусовый, мякоть как и от тропических фруктов так и от цитрусовых. Цвет желтый, глубокий, пенка средняя. Вкус тоже весьма средний, сразу ощущается что хмель в постоянную горечь уходит, но при этом не сильную. Фрукы как пюре ощущаются, но нету сильных тропиков. Финиш умеренный, микс их горчинки и фруктов.

Bière trouvée au comptoir irlandais (12€ la 33 cl). Robe sombre trouble, sans mousse. Nez gourmand, entre fruits mûrs, sherry et porto. En bouche, attaque liquoreuse et chaleureuse, sans carbonatation, avec une belle rondeur maltée. Les fruits secs dominent : raisin, prune, notes de caramel et une touche boisée. L’élevage en fût apporte une belle profondeur, bien intégrée. Finale longue et chaleureuse. Un barley wine à savourer lentement, idéal pour une soirée détendue.

Bottle at home, from an online peddler whom I can't recall, 15/12/24.# Lighter shade of black topped with a good sized lasting khaki head. Nose is earthy roast, dried red berries, cocoa powder, toffee, charr. Taste comprises earthy roast, cocoa powder, freeze dried raspberries, charr, toffee, dusty fruits. Medium bodied, fine massaging carbonation, light drying close with just a hint of alcohol. Okay stout ... this bottle has a few years on it and it's coming out a good touch over the average score for me!
