Garrold Profile - Brewver (Dev)

500ml bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. Clear gold. Half decent white foam collapses to a thin but lasting film. Some syrupy notes here although there’s just enough peppery hop to cope. Nicely nutty grain as it loses its chill. Taste is light sweet with a good bit of spicy peppery bitterness. Drinks good overall. Light bitter finish. The initial syrupy thing seems to subside as you go along and leaves a nice Marzen.

Can. The last one of a shit load picked up by my mate Daz off his hols a bit back. Waxed can! Pours surprisingly thin cola brown but sits in the glass nearly black, with a slim dense ring of tan. Quite the transformation. Nose on this is quite extraordinary. Salty sweet savoury chocolate vanilla leathery honeyed cakey vibe. Taste is similarly bonkers. Saline, light caramel sweet, and dry and semi bitter. Slick and easy drinking. There’s some adept brewing happened here. Glorious stuff.

Can. Delivered by the brewer day after ordering. Hazed gingery gold. Slim white foam. Nose has sticky malts. Touch of dank hop leaf. Bit of pineapple and sweet ripe melon. Nice hit of vinous Nelson. Taste is semi sweet with moderate bitterness. Drinks old school. Plenty of depth. Nice juicy bitter finish.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines I think. Or the Dram Shop. Light haze on a slightly odd grey tinged gold. Decent thick white foam. Nose has light citrus peel hop. Orange flesh and zest. Light clean grain. Taste is dry and nicely bitter. Good easy drinking. Decent depth of flavour. Light dry light citrus bitter finish. Solid.

Can. Dram Shop. Just about clear fairly deep gold. Slim but super sticky lacing lasting white foam. Looks the business. Nose has sticky malt loaf grain. Hops are herbal, sappy, almost minty and eucalyptus like. Bit dank and a bit sweaty. Definitely out of the ordinary and I think I’m liking it. Taste has plenty of sweetness with a fair punchy resinous bitterness. Lots of body. Bit sticky. Bit punchy. Big bitterness to finish. Wow. Wasn’t expecting that. Bold hoppy unusual super easy drinking sappy old school IPA. Boss.
