Bottle: Nose is light tropical tones with lots of lime. Taste leads with pine, grapefruit rind, citrus tones with a dry lasting finish. Mouthfeel is a little thin which you would expect for the strength. It’s a very good session beer, that has a lot going on for the strength.

Bottle at Craig’s. Pours dark brown with a thin beige head. Aromas of light smoke, roasted malt and dark fruit. Taste is very bitter, more smoke coming through at the end. Bitter finish. Good.

Nose is caramel leading to strong toffee waffle, with a very subtle herbal note at the end- very mellow and nice. Taste biscuit, leading to lots of butterscotch, a touch of herbal hops in the end. Mouthfeel is a touch thin. It’s so rare I have a mild that this was a real treat.

500ml bottle from Beermoth. Pours a cloudy deep brown with a teasing, tantalising aroma of resinous pine before a massive bitterness bomb hits you on the palette.. you’re searching for a bit of fruitiness but sadly it never comes. Not surprised this is a homebrew, needs improvement.

Bottle. Nose is grapefruit, lots of mango sorbet, pineapple and papaya. Taste is tropical fruits lead to malt and a short sharp resin and dry finish. Mouthfeel is slick. A nice American style ale.
