Not a ton of depth but it is really drinkable. Good toasted malts, milk chocolate, accents of vanilla, roast, ash, mild earthy bitterness. Subtle dark fruit notes. As noted, very drinkable, especially for the ABV.

Pretty good for the style. Some dry pale malts, oats, lemon peel, light minerality, low bitterness, nip of pithy grapefruit. Easygoing and drinkable, if unremarkable.

Vintage 2014. Definition of decadent. Concentrated apples, sweet and moreish, caramel, honey, fresh apple, toasted sugars. Full bodied, subtly oily. Lightly warming finish, sweet but not quite cloying, more delicious sugary apple. A shot of this is, pound for pound, probably more satisfying than almost any other beverage.

Good fun. Bright and zippy blueberry character, mellow acidity, touches of wood, vanilla pods, lemon. Clean finish, with balanced tartness, pleasantly drying. Highly moreish.

Gets the job done. Decent dry piney hop character, sun-kissed malts, citrus peel. A bready note. Quite drinkable. Sound.
