17th Aug 2020, monthly beer share in Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury (just four of us on this one). Cheers Mat, or Mike? For this 440ml can. Gold body, white topping. Cucumber beer is not a thing I craze and this beer hasn't changed my view on the subject.

440ml can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, August 2020. Picked up from Bottle & Barrel, Aberystwyth. Generally clear gold, frothy white head. Although it states it's an IPA on the can, this is really all about the cucumber. It's quite prominent on the nose, and courses through on the palate with a flinty dry and bitter character. A little watery. No noticeable juniper. Not sure I will ever understand the appeal of cucumber in a beer, but there you go.

Can from Watson and Pratt's, Lampeter. Hazy deep gold with a large white head and a moderate fizz. It lives up to its description - it's a sour beer that tastes of rose, sure enough. It's sweetish at first with quite a dry finish. It's rather an elegant-tastinh drink (certainly too elegant for the pizza I had it with!) - you could actually imagine this appealing to the G&T and champagne drinkers. On the down side it's a bit one-dimensional. I enjoyed it it nevertheless, it's always nice to try something different.

Thuis uit een halve literfles. Leuk etiket. Licht troebel amberkleur, weinig schuim. Aroma wat zuur en klein beetje hop. Smaak: ook een beetje zuur, wel fris en klein beetje bitter. Vlakke nasmaak, niet heel bijzonder.

500ml bottle from Ludlow Farm Shop. Pours black with a finger of beige head. Aroma is lightly salty, dark malt. Light bodied with dark malts, interesting salty notes playing with the bitterness on the finish, soft roast, distant chocolate. Ok.

Thuis, een halve liter fles gedeeld met Eus. Mooi etiket, stijlvol. Helder gouden kleur, gewoon een lekker pils wat mij betreft.
