Leighton Profile

Very drinkable NA gear. Pleasant citrusy notes, supportive mild bready pale malts, low bitterness, a little pine and grapefruit. No complaints really.

Interesting brew. Quite fruity, lots of semi-dark fruits, grape, a light berry note, very soft toasted malts, wouldn’t say toasty. Some toasted sugar sweetness. Burnt biscuits perhaps. Decently balanced. Novel. Enjoyed a half pint, wouldn’t opt for more than that.

Lovely stuff. Good condition. Nice spicy grains, sun-kissed malts, a little pine, leaves, crackers, biscuits. Rather moreish.

Pretty good stuff, mellow autumnal spicing - but it’s there. Some toasted malts, but of caramel, vague pumpkin, pumpkin pie. Nicely balanced overall. A little vanilla lingers.

Really solid overall. Nice resinous pine but fairly restrained, a little toasted grain, rich malt, suggestions of caramel and earthy hops. Well rounded, balanced, looks great. Sound.

Nice one. Plump citrus fruits, moderate sweetness, impressions of pine, rind, sun-kissed malts. Rounded and pretty smooth. Highly drinkable.
