500ml bottle; BB 28th August 2022. Drank at home on 4th September 2021. I allowed a little sediment to leave the bottle, so my amber beer had a slight haze to it's appearance, thin white head on top. Decent enough traditional UK beer, nice easy blend of malty molasses and fruity hops, malts just about win on both the aroma and flavour.

500ml bottle conditioned; BB 28th Feb 2022. Obtained from a National Trust property shop while down in Devon. Drank at home on 23rd July 2021. I allowed the sediment to leave the bottle, so my golden beer had a mini haze to it's look, proud white head on top. Not too sure what's Springy about it, because it's a fairly unassuming sort of beer with not much going on aroma or taste wise. It's not unpleasant, just doesn't give much to write about; where are the Fuggles, Cascade and Golding hops they claim they've 'well hopped' it with?

Fun in the sun, 500ml bottle: BB 30th Nov 2021. Drank on my patio on 18th Jul 2021. Really enjoyed this 'basic' IPA. Bought at a Nation Trust place in Devon. Clean and clear deep amber body, lasting off-white/white head. Fruity and hoppy with minimal citrus content aroma and flavour wise, just a good honest blend of hops and malts. Reminded me of beers before the word 'craft' turned up!

500ml bottle: BB 31st Oct 2021. Drank at home on 30th Jun 2021. Bought in the National Trust shop at Knightshayes. Bottle conditioned. Off-white crown on a dark brown body, mini-haze from the sediment I allowed into my glass. Got to say I was a little disappointed with this, haven't had a Mild for a while and was looking forward to trying this; it just seemed a bit 'fizzy' and 'bland'. Malty it was, hints of chocolate maybe, but nothing to get my senses excited or extended.
