Isle Of Wight Holiday Beer#80. Another local with a shoreline setting for this one at basecamp. Easy enough going traditional tasting ale, some hoppiness within a pale ale texture and taste. Bought at Harvey's in Yarmouth.

Near clear amber beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Smooth palate, light and mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Smooth malts, traces of caramel and cream. Ripe fruits and dried fruits. There is a pleasant touch of Brambling Cross dark berry fruits under the usual Christmas spice assault. Soft smooth cinnamon dominates, pinch of nutmeg maybe. Light and semi dry finish. Yes, it over done Christmas nonsense season once again, this one, I reckon, will taste better than most.

Almost clear deep gold - amber beer, small but tidy off white head. Light palate, a very mild dryness, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, a little cream and a little caramel. Mild pine into mellow but juicy ripeish orange hops. Light finish. Old skool mellow ale done well.
