For me one proper and honest beer review is more worth than 100 ticks without any relevant content. It’s all about respect for the beer and the craftmanship behind. I will always try to do my best for a proper rating than playing the number game.

Can @ home. Beautiful, clear reddish amber body under a big, foamy beige head. Aroma has malt, caramel, fruity hops and a piny touch. Taste is balanced sweet malt with moderate caramel, refreshing fruity hops, a hint of pine and fine bitterness. Balanced body and same aftertaste. Nice and food friendly.

Can @ Telfords. Close to pitch black body under a big, foamy beige head. Aroma has dark malt, roasted coffee and dark chocolate. Taste is very smooth, mild roasted, dark malt, some coffee and dark chocolate and medium bitterness. Balanced body with a smooth, nice aftertaste as well. Nice and tasty stout without any nonsense that shouldn’t be able to offend anyone.

Bottle @ Telfords. Clear dark brown, almost black under a small, lacing beige head. Nice aroma of dark malt, lots of dry fruit and quite vinous with a hint of wood. Taste is strong and super smooth with malt, dry fruit and distinct red vine and a wooden touch. Balanced body with long lasting slightly warming aftertaste, otherwise alcohol is well hidden. Really smooth and pleasant imp stout in the crossing of a barley wine.

Bottle. Almost clear golden body under a white head. Aroma is quite typical pilsner, some malt, moderate hops and slightly herbal. Taste is typical pilsner as well, perhaps a bit sweet but otherwise I can’t say to detect any strange ingrediency like seaweed etc. Away from that its actually super soft and smooth, very drinkable and tasty for a pilsner. Fresh and highly enjoyable.
