jjsint Profile - Brewver

Draught keg at the 2025 Rutland CAMRA Festival, the County Museum, Oakham. Light and maybe slightly greenish yellow, hazy with a small white head. Nice aroma but it's really hidden. Notes of mango, peach, orchard fruits, lime. Bittersweet taste with a keen citrus bitterness nearer the finish. Body is thin with soft to medium carbonation. Okay.

Carolinian from Columbia Craft Brewing Company

6.5/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5

355ml can purchased from Beers of America and drunk at home. Golden and clear with an uneven and slightly foamy white head. Light aroma, a bit grainy, bready, buttery. Taste is sweet, light butter notes, fleeting touch of sweet spice, some bitterness near the finish. Thin body but the carbonation hides it. It’s competent and inoffensive, but doesn’t have anything to excite the palate.

Atten-Bitter from Mill Hill Brew Co

7.1/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7 Flavor 6.5 Texture 8 Overall 7.5

440ml can bought at Mill Hill Cask and Coffee, Enderby. Drunk at home. Golden brown, maybe a little bit thin-looking, clear with a fine beige head. Woody aroma, slightly floral, with a little caramel. Taste isbsweet at first, a little soapy, with some nice bitterness closer to the end. More woody notes, little Irn Bru. Light body with perfectly judged carbonation. Not perfect but well-made, enjoyable, and a little different than your standard bitter

Pale Ale - Chinook from The Kernel Brewery

1 year ago

6.8/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 6.5

500ml bottle purchased from the Offie, Leicester and drunk at home. Light yellow gold, a little hazy with a slightly loose white head. Lighter aroma than many Kernel pales, this beer gives white grapefruit, light pineapple, a background woody character. Bright, sweet, fruity taste, acidic grapefruit again. Very gentle bitterness on the finish. Simple and refreshing.

6.8/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 6.5

440ml can bought from Mill Hill Cask & Coffee, Enderby. Drunk at home. Very light yellow, hazy with a big loose white head. Light notes of pineapple and pink grapefruit with some vanilla wafer malty notes. Sweet taste, a little bit herbal, a little bit acidic. Hoppy bitterness. Light to medium body with good carbonation. I mean, it's fine, but not as satisfying as many similar IPAs.
