This stout poured a deep black colour with a minimal, dark brown, creamy head. Nice lacing. Scents include Marmite, yeast, cocoa, alcohol and roasted dough. First swig was quite sweet and thick with flavour. Tastes of sweet roasted dark malt, molasses, Marmite, coffee and a little whiskey? Finish is thick, sweet and burnt with burnt malt lingering.

This triple IPA poured a hazy, medium yellow colour with a creamy, bright white head. Nice lacing. Scents include floral, peaches, apricot, pineapple, bubble gum, chlorine and a little spice. First swig was smooth and creamy. Just a point, this was bought accidentally. These over-hopped messes are pretty much undrinkable in my eyes. The strength of the hops is overpowering, maybe after half of it if I can get it down, may kill my tastebuds enough to drink the whole thing.
Flavours of peaches, apricots, pineapple are most prominent. Finish is sweet, thick and bitter. Not to mention acidic. I’m sure this will do wonders for my heartburn.
