Can. Beer Central. Mostly clear gold. Slim super sticky lasting white head. Nose is big on the sappy pine. Ripened citrus. Light buttery malts. Taste has some sweetness but is mostly piny and resinous bitter. Full of body and bitterness. Drinks mighty fine overall. Lingering bitterness to finish. Class in bitter simplicity.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. 5.5%. Hazed pale gold. Decent white foam starts off voluminous and settles fairly solid. Nose has all the yeasty esters. Ripe banana. Clove. Taste is sweet with some weird astringency. Some tartness on the palate too with high-ish carbonation. Finishes similarly. Sets off good but gets a bit wonky.

Can picked up at the brewery. Dirty pale gold. Loose suds of off white. Not especially a looker. Nose has some fusty notes. Bit of on the turn stone fruit. Sweet grain. Taste is pretty sweet. Comes across a bit old or oxidised. Light bitter finish. Not great.

Can. A Xmas gift from the missus. Soft haze on a medium gold. Slim sticky lasting white foam. Nose has fruity light spicy light herbal character on top of clean bready malt. Taste is semi sweet with moderate bitterness and a faint tingle of spice from, presumably, the ginger. The juniper and orange zest are noticeable but subtle. Light spicy bitter finish. Nice one. Comes together really well.

Bottle. Kernel advent box. Nearly black. Immense swede. Literally nobody does a better swede. Phenomenal. Anyway. Char and a touch of treacle. Scorched citrus fruit. Definitely hitting BIPA territory here. Taste has some sweetness up front with a robust bitterness. Super creamy overall. Proper unputdownable. Roast malt and juicy hop bitterness to finish. Drinking this Xmas day after a fuck off pile of other class gear but it stands out ridiculous.
