7.5/10 Appearance 7 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
On tap at Ammutsøn, Wien Friday 22nd May 2026. Pours warm gold with a slight haze and a nice white clinging head. Tangy and with a fruity tart edge. The oakiness from the barrel ageing is clearly noted, there is a slight dustiness (but not a negative) a cider or even gueuze tannin dry sour edge. Good. Score:7.5

Bottle picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at apartment in Passau Wednesday 21st May 2026 watching Netflix after a humongous Pizza 🍕 at L'Osteria. Pours shark eye pitch black with a mid sized tan head. The aroma is a little roasty but also wordiness, chocolate and a little fudge, Loz picks up smokiness more than I can. Warming in the mouth, a little vanilla, chocolate again, nice but ultimately a bit too sweet. Score: 7.3

Can picked up from BRLO webshop, Berlin and consumed at home Wednesday 20th May 2026 listening to Huw Stephens on 6Music. We have a Creamy Coconut Dumpling Traybake for tea from GoodFood magazine April 2026. Pours murky yellow/gold with a large white head. Fruity nose, soft mouthfeel, a little herbal touch, whilst it's tropical there is a little mint, juicy, a very light bitterness, sweet orange. Good. Score:7.3

Bottle picked up from BRLO webshop, Berlin and consumed at home Tuesday 19th May 2026, listening to ByteFM and cooking Minced Beef and Cheese Pie, with Roast Potatoes and Cabbage. Pours hazy gold with a large white head, a little bit disappointed as was expecting better from BRLO, however there is a non alcoholic taint. On the plus side there's not much sweetness, it's ok. Score: 5.6

Bottle picked up locally and consumed Monday 18th May 2026, we're making a quick meal Creamy Salmon and Pea pasta for tea and Loz is off to Eisstockschießen, I'm going in a observer capacity. Pours yellow with a slight haze and mid sized white head. Light lemonade on the nose. A touch sweet, more lemonade focus than beer, which is noted only because it's quite subtle. Score:5.3

Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at home Sunday 17th May 2026 after a couple of hours working in the garden, chatting to dad via WhatsApp, we have a Thomasina Miers slow cooked Chilli this evening for tea. Pours gold in colour mostly clear, there may be a very slight haze, white head. Citrus and tropical notes with the latter just about winning out. In the mouth it's a similar story, fruity with a leaning towards tropical, there is a steady but slightly underwhelming bitterness. It's absolutely fine, indeed quite nice but ultimately falls a little short of my expectations. Score: 7.1

Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at home Sunday 17th May 2026 after a couple of hours working in the garden, we're still listening to Fins - Thumping Playlist on Tidal, we have a Thomasina Miers slow cooked Chilli this evening for tea. Pours murky yellow gold colour with a mid/large frothy white head. Aroma is a little grainy with a peachiness and some tropical touches. Nice mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tastewise it's got a juiciness but also a little bitterness, hoppiness picks up and as this warms slightly, in fact it lingers throughout. Score: 7.9

Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at home Saturday 16th May 2026 after a couple of hours working in the garden, we're still listening to Fins - Thumping Playlist on Tidal, we had a fab' Pastitsio. This reminds me a lot of the Verdant Triple Putty, colour very similar murky yellow with a large white head, but where it immediately differs is that whilst it is very hoppy it isn't the hop monster that the PuTTTy is. There's a nice canned peachiness here, maybe apricots as well that give a subtle tang, it's really nice. This beer if a 9.5% beer could be described as refined is actually a more refined smoother less aggressive beast, hoppy yes but wasn't getting hoppy burps here. Thickness in the mouth yes but sweetness is balanced. This may seem like a strange thing to say because this beer is the more appealing beer in many ways but I slightly prefer the PuTTTy. Just as an aside I actually had this beer six years ago, okay the abv differed by a tiny bit and it didn't have the Fully Loaded term, so possibly very slightly different but let's not beat about the bush it was essentially the same beer, however back then I gave it a 7.0 and noted a 'huge hoppiness, really, really aggressively hoppy' it's a more mature beer now. more rounded, very good drinkabilty for the abv, it's really grown up. Score: 7.8
