Oakes Profile - Brewver (Dev)

Magnet cask. Light amber, big head…it’s a warm day for cask. Lots of spruce, that provides a fair amount of bitterness. It is extra soft on cask, this method of serving actually manages to mute the beer, opposite on expected.

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7

Quite pale, medium head. Soft body, blackcurrant hops, blackberry, salmonberry, it’s a nice pocket but some more bitterness would help it pop because the malt is relatively light.

Quite pale, thin head, oniony, off-dry, some hop burn, lacks malt. One of their weaker efforts…sulphury and thin. I mean citra and krush it's going to suck, and it does.

Pale amber, no head. Sweet, soft of biscuity malt, medium bitterness, light alcohol, and very mild esters like English yeast sort of thing. But the malts aren’t all that complex, and that holds this back.

Gold, bright. Thin head. Medium bitterness, clean pale malt. It's okay, for something to add as flight filler.
