Keg at The Plasterers Arms, Norwich, Saturday 6th May 2017 Sparkling gold in colour with a white head. Fruity and really refreshing with a good streaky bitterness that builds, really dry back end. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

Cask at The Plasterers Arms, Norwich, Saturday 6th May 2017 Really lemony beer that teeters on the edge of a sour/pale. Amber in colour with a white wispy head, a little dry, good but a bit strange. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

Keykeg at the Drayman’s Son, Ely at 4.1%. Pale yellow/orange, just a trifle hazy. A fairly large loose white head which quickly fades. There’s lemon in the nose to be sure, but the aroma is punctuated by sticky resinous hops. Taste is bitter/sour lemon underpinned by a light almost sugary sweetness. Bitterness in the aftertaste with gentle grapefruit notes. Very enjoyable.

Cask at Reading Beer Festival. Tart lemon with some icing sugar. A little thin and a little odd - it tastes somewhere between a golden ale and a sour and feels a little confused as to what it’s trying to achieve. It’s OK though.

From the Key-Keg Bar at the 26th East Anglian Beer & Cider festival, Bury St Edmunds. Pours black with a lasting tan colour head. Aroma of coffee, chocolate, roasted malt, cream and vanilla. Medium to heavy sweetness, light roasted bitterness. Medium body, slick texture, average to soft carbonation. Finish is sweet, coffee,, and light roasting. Decent.

Keg from the Cambridge Blue. Very dark brown. I may be imagining a purplish hue. The milk chocolate and yeasty notes come through clearly on the nose. Taste is more sour/bitter, with sour cherry and a bready yeast hit. Long drying finish. More cherry on the aftertaste. A trifle unbalanced but very easy drinking. Somewhere between a fruity brown ale and a Dubbel-type concoction.

Keg at the Cambridge Blue. A hangover (no pun intended) from the recent pub beer festival where TBM were prominently featured. Dark brown, almost but not quite black. Very little head. Light aroma for a beer of this intensity: some milk chocolate and latte notes. The taste is infused with chai spice but there’s an unwelcome medicinal and herbal note. The finish is long and focused with Irish cream, liquorice and potpourri finishing it off. Good but not great, and far from the best I’ve had from a brewery whose strong beers I tend to hold in especially high regard. (Also starting to wonder how well TBM work in keg but that’s for another day.) Still worth seeking out as it’s a tasty original recipe.

Keg at the Cambridge Blue. Dark gold and cloudy with spotty white head. Sea salt, biscuit spread, a hint of uni. Forest fruit sweetness with some umami. I get very little pink peppercorn but the saisony yeast comes through in droves. Some cress and papaya in the aftertaste. Doesn’t taste anywhere near 6%. A decent little drop.

Cask at the 8th Chappel Winter Beer Festival. 3% abv. Pours pale gold with a small bubbly white head. Aroma of light hop, fruit, floral, malt. Light sweetness and medium bitterness. Light body and thin texture, carbonation is soft. Finish has a lasting bitterness. Quite drinkable for a low abv bitter.
