Garrold Profile

Can picked up at the brewery by my mate Daz. Pours like gravy! Not sure what’s going off but it’s thick as a bag. Sits ominous chocolate brown with a slim viscous being foam. Can’t meet my mind up if it looks good or not. Nose has sugary espresso. Citrus hop leaf. Some light savoury notes. Taste has light sweetness and big semi mineraly bitterness. Slick with good body. Big bitterness to finish with a light milky coffee sweetness knocking about. Fucking bosh.

Alpine Pale from Wold Top

1 month ago

7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7.5 Texture 7 Overall 7.5

Bottle. A gift from Totnes. The person not the place. Not sure I’ve added a Wold Top beer before. Anyway. Clear pale gold. Decent sticky white swede. Nose has nice hoppage here. And surprisingly unbuttery. Bit of peach and ripe nectarine. Some light piny notes. Taste has some light caramel sweetness and a good hit of bitterness. Drinks well and feels fresh. Light bitter finish. Way better than I was expecting.

Vitória from Triple Point Brewing

1 month ago

7.3/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7

Can. Dram Shop. Slightly muddy peachy gold with a faint haze. Not much of a swede as per most TP offerings. Nose has nicely fruity peach purée. Sweet raspberry. Bit of an ice cream vibe. Taste is light tart with some sweetness on the lips. Light acidity. Feels a tad thin and has a wheaty character throughout. High-ish carbonation. Light tart finish. Ok. Aroma promises more than is delivered.

Amedea All Nighter from Whitstable Oyster Brewing

1 month ago

7.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7.5 Texture 8 Overall 8

Can picked up at the brewery by my mate Daz. Not far off BBD. Clear very dark reddy brown. Glossy topped beige foam. Nose has fairly subdued hop with notes of pine and caramelised citrus. Some coffee malts. Bit of a savoury note. Taste is better with decent balance between sweet and coffee bitter. Smooth and quite creamy. Bitter finish. I suspect the hops have dropped off considerably here. Still smashed it, mind.

Pearly Blanche from Whitstable Oyster Brewing

1 month ago

8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8

Can picked up at the brewery by my mate Daz. Glowing lemon gold. Thick white foam settles to a dense semi lacing glossy affair. Nose has flowery hop. Orange peel. Soft wheat. Light “Belgian” yeasty notes. Some sweetness on the lips with a nice gentle herbal bitterness. Smooth and foamy on the palate. Sinks particularly easy. Nice for not being too yeasty or sweet. Light dry light bitter finish. Nice.

IX. The Hermit from Rigg & Furrow Farmhouse Brewery

1 month ago

8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8

Can picked up at the brewery. Fully hazy pale lemony gold. Slim super sticky white head. Looks the part. Definitely delivers on the hoppage. Ripe fleshy citrus and a lovely Nelson twang here. Bit of grapefruit and a bit of sappy pine for good measure. Taste is a little sweet to start with a good amount of zingy citrus bitterness. Drinks well overall. It has body but drinks under the 6.3. Moderate lingering bitter finish. If you’d parked your arse drinking this on tap at the brewery you’d do well to keep under half a gallon.
