Keg at Scaredy Cats Cafe, Cardiff. Dark brown and just a tiny bit translucent with a ring of khaki head. Aroma of molasses and salted caramel, boozy dates. Sweet taste, bursting with treacle and date notes leading to a short finish. Body is light for the ABV with carbonation on the soft side. Not a life-changer but I'm always thrilled to welcome a new eisbock into my life.

On tap at BrewDog Waterloo, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out gentle grassy hops and toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is flat, with toasted biscuity malt, flat hops, and soft earthiness. Flat and poorly hopped, but clean enough.

330ml bottle: BB October 2023. Drank at home on 17th May 2023. White topping on the clean golden body, no haze. Strange taste and aroma, slightly skunked maybe. Anyway I didn't like the smell or flavour of this brew. A present from my London based brother Matthew, not the first beer from these guys I've struggled with to be honest.

330ml bottle: BB September 2023. Drank at home on 4th May 2023. Slight haze in the amber body, short lived off-white head. I think it's infected or skunked, as it's not like any Festbier I've had before, sour and bitter, think it's made with Rottenburgers rather than Rottenburger Hops! Had to drain pour it, something I hate doing, luckily my brother Matt gave it to me as a present, so I don't feel cheated. Scored according to how I found it.

330ml bottle: BB November 2023. A gift from my brother Matthew and drank at home on 30th April 2023. Slight have in the golden body, fast fading white head. Almost odourless with a malty leaning, some mild citrus like flavours in the taste; pretty boring really.

330ml bottle: BB October 2023. A present from my brother Matthew, along with three others from this brewery and selection of more London brews, cheers Bro. Drank at home on 27th April 2023. Clean and clear golden body, white affair on top. Slight malty nose, some mild sweetness to the flavour, leading to a semi-dry finish. Easy drinking Helles, didn't find any honey.

330ml bottle at Flat Iron, Kings X. It pours clear golden with a medium, fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, mellow, bready, doughy, biscuit malt, light sweetness, touch of grain and cereal. The taste is crisp, clean, light, airy malt, some floral accents, straw, doughy bread, light biscuit and weak citrus with a soft, doughy finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Drinkable and serviceable lagerbier.

Keg at BD Camden. Aroma is very sweet - burnt demerara sugar and figs. Opaque dark brown. Creamy beige head thins out. There's an underlying Christmasy joint of malts, dark fruit and rye. However this is is forced down by a boozy streak. Liquorice and black coffee develop late on. Medium-heavy bodied. Creamy. Average carbonation. Long some astringent finish... it's the booze.
