Garrold Profile

Can. Beer Stop Dronfield. Dusted off a Deya Teku for this hoping for a clean and bitter banger. It’s a milky, oaty green hop bag of shite that instantly made me remember why I’d stopped buying Deya beers years ago. Absolutely indistinguishable from all their other output.

Bottle via the online shop. Nearly black. Leggy and semi lacing glossy tan foam. Nose has red wine dregs. Milk chocolate. Ripe orange. Whiff of mint leaf. I don’t really understand this, so far. Taste is semi sweet with a touch of a fruity twang. Some roast malt bitterness. Drinks like a beer half the actual ABV, feeling creamy and dessert like. Tangy fruity light bitter finish. Pretty amazing drinkability here. Not sure I’ve had anything close to this. Bonkers.

Bottle via the online shop. I think with various discounts this was sub 2 quid. Which tbf is all this particular bottle is worth. Dull lifeless pour. Sits muddy sad brown in the glass. Swede is thin and dirty. After that it’s just a flat oxidised mess, unfortunately. There’s a whiff of barrel in there but overall it’s lost.

750ml bottle. Chatsworth Farm Shop. Hazed pale gold. Good white swede. Nose has light earthy ginger. Sweet rhubarb. Vanilla pod. Taste is light sensitive with some moderate bitterness. Beautiful condition as per a Resting Devil bev. Hint of bitterness to finish. Shows off the additions really well. Missus hated it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Pint can. Asdas. Soft hazed gold. Decent white foam stays the course. Nose has pine air freshener. Some sweet citrus. That’s about it really. Taste has an initial brioche like sweetness before getting resinous and sappy bitter. Sticky on the palate. Needs drinking very cold this one. Sappy bitterness to finish. Very one dimensional and tbh it got boring by the end of the fuck off big can.

Can picked up at the brewery. Lovely rose pink colour with a nice dense pale pink foam. Easy 9. Nose has light tart fruit and plenty of wheat. Taste is lightly tart with noticeable salinity. Light bodied with soft foamy carbonation. Bit thin on the finish. Ok enough but overall it’s a bit wheaty.
