Bottleshare at Chez Smith. Thanks to Leighton. Hazy pale gold beer, tidy off white head. Palate is light and semi dry and has a fine minerally crispness. Light malts, modest sweetness, trace of cream. Light hop skunk. Nice medley of citric peel, pine and lemon - lime. Crisp finish. Hmmm - interesting brewery, light beers but well nuanced flavours. Very drinkable. Again.

Growler shared in Hackney - thanks the rents, who sourced it from the brewery. Pours black-brown with a creamy, tan head. The aroma holds rich roast, coffee grounds, some ash, scorched earth. Light-medium sweet with pleasant, somewhat edgy cocoa, more burnt earth, some raisins, ash. Medium bodied, silky, with fine carbonation. Balanced finish with some bittersweet cocoa, dark chocolate, hearty roast. Great all-around porter.

Growler shared at LKS. It pours near black with a decent tan head. The aroma toasty, cacao, brown bread, coffee grounds, earthy, wood, dull vanilla and wood. The taste is dry, bitter, earthy, wood, leather, cacao, coffee grounds, spicy, chewy malt and tannins with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. A bit chewy. Not as chuggable as their other offerings. Not bad though.
