Lovely stuff, layered and luscious. Toothy dark malts, charred rubber, dark sugars, cocoa, earth. Velvety texture. Burnt toast. Delightful.

This is too-notch NA gear. Tasted blind, probably wouldn’t be able to tell it’s NA. Lovely tropical fruit vibes, soft rindy bitterness, unusually creamy texture. Lightly sweet, not overly sugary. Very well balanced and super drinkable.

Not bad. Has pleasant fruity hop character, semi-ripe citrus, sweet bready pale malts, minimal bitterness. A little sweet in the aftertaste, a little grave, ripe lemon. Drinks fine for an NA.

Lean, dry and clean. Very tame Belgian yeast expression, citrus peel, dried pale biscuits, mild bitter straw, nips of pine needles. Slight minerality. Very drinkable stuff, nicely balanced, not at all overbearing.

A pleasant surprise - the other half picked this up from the local bakery (she’s not a perry drinker normally, and she didn’t buy this for me). Sweet but not cloying, a little ripe pear, subtle candy floss, quite low funk, mellow acidity. Nip of apple sauce. Spritzy carb. Hugely drinkable.

Lovely beer. Soft and pillowy. Fetching southern hem hop character, but restrained. Subtle pale biscuits, relaxed bitterness, some lemon rind. Slight citrus pith. Massively drinkable.
