On tap at Teardrop Bar, Oxford Market, Tuesday 12th October 2021. Pours hazy yellow with a slim clinging white head. The nose is a little bit cheesy, citra does show and is softly bitter. Ok.

On tap at Teardrop Bar, Oxford Market, Tuesday 12th October 2021. Pours dark brown with a few stray bubbles. Sweetness, some dark pluminess, a light roasty edge. Pretty good.

Bottle from Teardrop in Oxford Covered Market. Hazy orange-yellow. Bit of a gusher, but eventually settled down to a thin white head with a mild to middling fizz. Lemon up front, then light woodsmoke. It's sweetish and feels a bit thin. It's ok if a little underwhelming. It's a bit disappointing compared to this friendly brewer's other offerings. Still love the paper wrap on the bottle though.

Tap at Teardrop, Oxford A vague nose of plummy fruitiness. Pours a very dark reddish brown with a small cream head. In the mouth the test is mainly fruits, plums, raspberries and apples. A hint of chocolate as well. Fruits in the finish as well, along with some hops. Nice enough, but doesn’t have the bitter hoppiness I would expect from a black IPA.

Bottle from the Offie, drunk at home during the lockdown. Dark orangeish tan, clear with a smattering of white head. Enticing if slightly odd aroma with gummy resin, caramel, some citrus peel and a good dollop of smoke. Taste is really odd: bittersweet and smoky with a mouth-puckering sourness. The sourness barely abates through to the long finish. Light watery body, heavy carbonation. Messy doesn't begin to describe it, but it's intriguing, and I get used to the weirdness.

Third, gravicask, at the 22nd Oxford Beer & Cider Festival. Shared with Finn. Off-white head to a coal black body. Dotted spots on the glass. Inviting smell of berry-malts. Fine blended taste of mid-tart and sweet cherry backed by dark malts. Prolonged ending. Medium bodied. Like it. (25.10.2019).

Cask at the 32nd Egham beer festival, Egham, Surrey. A black coloured pour with a medium beige head on top. Roasty, malty, chocolate, coffee aroma. Tastes roasty, malty, chocolate, coffee, dark fruit, quite boozy. Decent enough.
