jjsint Profile - Brewver

50cl bottle from Baltic Food, Oxford. Light to mid-gold and clear. Honey, grassy herbs, maybe a hint of citrus. Sweet honeyed taste but doesn’t run away with it. A sourness toward the finish, bitter herb. Silky smooth texture, thick, viscous. Not the best Lithuanian mead I’ve had but it’s pretty good.

5.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5.5 Flavor 3.5 Texture 7 Overall 5.5

1.5 litre plastic bottle bought as part of a delivery from Baltic Foods, Oxford. Drunk at home. Very dark brown, translucent with a ring of tan head. Aroma is soured bread, it’s really malty with almost elements of damp earth smell. Taste is actually a bit sour-sweet. Stale bread. A lot of caramel, a bit of cola.weird and the worst kvass I’ve had.

440ml can bought as part of a delivery from RAD Beer and drunk at home. Is it supposed to come out this thick and gloopy? Pink, grey and orange-ish colour, thick and opaque with a pinkish white head. Aroma of vanilla, tropical fruits, berries. The taste is sumptous: marshmallow, guava, strawberry. Sweet as heep, but with a touch of sourness. Thickest beer I've ever had with some solid chunks. Basically no carbonation. Crazy and odd but very good.

Keg draught at the Three Nuns, Leicester. Mid golden, a little hazy, with a creamy off-white head. Herbal aroma, some citrus. Taste isn't so good. Some malty notes and souring yeasty bread with some light citrus. Some bitterness in the finish. Lighter body with carbonation on the heavy side. All in all not great.

440ml can at the Amber Rooms, Loughborough.it pours pinkish yellow lime rose wine. Clear. A small white head. Mostly pink grapefruit aroma with a light salty character. Light sweet and fruity taste with a bit of salt. Gentle bitterness in the finish. Watery body with somewhat heavy carbonation. It's okay but tastes more like a mixer than an actual drink.

440ml can bought as part of a delivery from RAD Beer and drunk at hone. Light to mid-gold and hazy with a small white head. A bit of mango, melon, maybe even a little banana. So, a taste it expecting a sugar bomb but it's nicely balanced. Maybe the bitter side of bittersweet. Lots more tropical fruit with some pink grapefruit and light elements of rose closer to the finish. Thick soupy body with medium carbonation. Lovely.

à la Grodziskie from Heller-Bräu Trum (Bamberg, Germany 🇩🇪)

7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7.5 Texture 7 Overall 7.5

500ml bottle as part of a delivery from RAD Beer and drunk at home. Mid-gold and clear with a large rocky off-white head. Light smoke, a deep malty aroma with a metallic edge. Light, sweet taste, more smoke, leading to some gentle bittering hops and a short finish. Body's pretty watery even for the low alcohol content, but the full carbonation more than makes up for that. Maybe short of their best beers but this is a humdinger.
