wheresthepath Profile

Keg at Vinny & Ted's, Beaconsfield. Hazy yellow with a negligible white head. Watery and bland. A bit of grass maybe. Could be refreshing on a hot day in the summer maybe, but it's appropriately named for something that's very short on hops.

Keg at Beaconsfield Taps - thanks Colin (I think) for sharing. Brown-black with a beige head. Fruity berries - blackcurrant maybe - up front, along with dark chocolate. Turns pleasantly smoky. Unfortunately it's a little thin and sour. Still quite enjoyable though.

Keg at Beaconsfield Taps - thanks Mark (I think) for sharing. Opaque, murky-looking yellow with an off-white head. Cheesey. Melted cheddar to the fore. There's some soft tropical fruit in the thick, creamy mouthfeel. Mainly I got yeasty cheese though, kind of a a Frenchman's foot infection vibe. Not entirely horrible but weird, slightly disturbing and certainly disappointing for a Phantom brew.

Keg at Beaconsfield Taps. New brewery for me. Hazy yellow with a large white head. Ooh, this is nice. Lovely fruitiness here - peach, mango and orange. The bitterness is well balanced against the sweet, juicy fruits. Good body too. Tasty stuff, enjoyed this.

Keg at Beaconsfield Taps. Lightly hazed pale gold with a white head. Crisp, clean, grassy. Simple but oh so refreshing and drinkable. Good first beer of the evening.

Cask at the White Swan (JDW), London before going to see Dea Matrona at the Garage in Highbury. Dark brown with a creamy head. Chocolate cherries up front. Really quite chocolately actually. Lots of Ribena and cranberry juice. Really quite fruity actually! But then soot and burnt, bitter malt - really quite sooty actually - which does clash a bit with all the sweet chocolatey fruitiness. It's certainly full-flavoured and interesting, and I did quite enjoy it - but they definitely need a chimney sweep in to deal with some of that soot. Dea Matrona were excellent by the way.
