BlackHaddock Profile

50cl can from a supermarket in Valkenburg, drank at home on 15th January 2026, poured into my huge 'Judas' glass while cooking a pasta meal. Red hue to the mahogany body, clean and clear, on top a large off white/lightly tanned crust. Sweet caramel nose and taste, malty and too sweet for it's own good really. So wanted to enjoy this, but I struggled to be honest.

Keg, half pint at the Wrekin Inn on 15th January 2026. Clean and clear bright golden body, white crust on top. Fruity, hoppy and leaning towards citrusy, good bitterness with a mini pine undertone, malt action helps to give balance.

Two half's, hand pulled at the Wrekin Inn on 15th January 2026. Clean amber body, off white crown on top, Malty front with a decent hop bitterness, earthy and slightly nutty, liked it (hence the second half).

Hand pulled half pint at the Wrekin Inn on 15th January 2026. Light golden body, white crown that lasted a while. Slight haze to this Gluten Free brew. Citrus bite, nose and taste, dry orange like finish. Too dry and citrus hoppy for my palate.

440ml can from my local Morrisons store. Drank at home on 13th January 2026. Clean and clear golden body, white crown on top. Slight malty lead, it's a decent enough Pilsner for a 4% ABV version. Easy drinking stuff.
