BlackHaddock Profile

US Pint can from Nip 'N' Sip. Drank at my daughters in Laguna Hills on 18th March 2026, sat in the afternoon sunshine. Slight haze to the dull golden body, white head that soon turned in a weak wisp and collar. Malty but lacking something, it didn't sit right with me and I struggled to finish the can.

Monthly Beer Share (five of us); Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury. 27th July 2020. I brought the bottle back with me from the US to share with friends. It was the 2019 version (14.7% ABV) with a BBD of 29th Jun 2024. Black body, tanned topping. Bourbon to the fore, harsh sugary feel too. Loads going on really, chocolate, coffee and other stuff trying the get passed the Bourbon and sweetness. Liked it.

US Pint can from a Trader Joe's, drank in my daughters garden (Laguna Hills) on 17th March 2026. Poured into a straight sided sleeve glass. Cloudy yellow body, snow white crown on top. Citrus lead, middle and finish, liked the hop blend, and the ABV helped to make it a pleasant late afternoon sunshine beer.
