Excellent depth and balance, sturdy roast, bit of charcoal, dried dark fruits, tobacco. Creamy texture. Bittersweet finish. Superb.

Nice and clean, pithy, some lime, pine needles, subtle rindy bitterness. Highly drinkable.

They’ve nailed it. Creamy and toasted, nice smooth dark malt character, dark fruit accents, cocoa, burnt leaves. Mighty drinkable.

Delicious. Fresh grainy pale malts, sun-kissed biscuits and cereal, mild grassy bitterness, straw. Clean and lip-smacking to finish. Lovely balance.

Good stuff overall. Fairly clean. Eatery snout. Moderate sweetness, nips of citrus, flaked wheat, lemon peel, banana chips. Nice depth. Could be creamier but overall it’s well enjoyable.

Mellow smoke character, toasted bread, earth. There are some tangy-fruit kind of notes that seem off - perhaps suggestive of an infection. Could be good but seems out of shape.

Golly that’s good. Exquisitely balanced. Robust smoked malt, burnt ham, nips of toasted caramel, burnt cereal, roast, hint of cocoa. Light bodied with massaging carb. Lip-smacking finish. Nice depth. Sound.
