Enjoyable stuff. Noted at 3.4%. Pleasant bready malt character, modest British yeast expression. Soft leafy hop bitterness. Background accent of sun-kissed honey. Nicely rounded. Good amount of character for the low ABV. Very drinkable.

Good enough, really. Rich and bready, moderately sweet, ample doughy wheat bread, light ripe banana and eatery notes, minimal bitterness. Medium bodied. Smooth finish, easygoing.

What’s not to like? If you’re seeking a juicy, tropical and mellow sour beer, this really hits the spot. Relaxed acidity, bright and fresh pineapple, decent bittersweet grapefruit. Very well balanced. Firmly not a novelty beer. This is a breakfast beer for sure.

Rich woody barrel character. A little earth, cocoa, tyre, raisins. Slight tangy burnt wood. A little warm. Pleasantly rich sweetness. Nicely rounded. Good depth. Some stewed dark fruits. Sound.

A typically sweet and reasonably tasty pastry offering from this brewery. A bit cloying? Yes. Some toasted nut notes, burnt sugars, raisins, caramel, vanilla. In small doses, it’s fine. A little sticky and warming.

Not bad. Ample toasted malts, nutty notes, toffee, grain, booze, dried semi-dark fruits. Mild warmth. A little depth but fairly straightforward.

Vague, a bit scattered. Some green and vaguely weedy hop presence, maybe some rind, bitter grass and grain husk, pale malt grains. Has a thinness to it. Head dissipates too quickly. Lacks a little body. Average at best.

Great stuff overall. Highly economical. Balanced bitterness. Lemon peel, crisp pale bread, some pine needles, dirty straw, slight citrusy vibes. Clean finish. Super.

Good stuff overall. Interesting character. Decent roast, little ash, cocoa, raisin, twangy dark berries, little dirt, old tyres. The condition ain’t bad. Pleasantly rounded.
