Garrold Profile

Bottle via the online shop. Soft haze on a straw gold. Solid lasting white foam. Nose has pears hops and lager yeast. Which is a bullshit description but that’s it. Who would think it. Taste has fleeting sweetness but is mostly dry with some twang of hop bitterness. Super clean overall with brisk foamy carbonation. Light fruity twang to finish. Simple and delicious.

I’ll try a third time. Oxidised shite picked up at Welbeck. Not the first from this brewer in this condition. Won’t be bothering again.

Battered can that actually split, via the online shop. Inevitably it pours a bit flat. Black as you like in the glass. No head. Rich chocolate malts. Old school vine fruit shizzle. Slick and stupidly easy drinking. Class beer despite the condition.

Bottle. Light haze on a medium gold. Pretty lively. Thick foam. Nose has a fusty cardboard yeasty thing that NR beers get, and you can either happily enjoy thoroughly or not depending on one’s tolerance. Anyway today is good. Good hops. Light malts. Juicy.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. Fresh bottle states Simcoe Mosaic Citra Centennial. Sounds boss to me. Soft haze on a gingery gold. Firm super sticky leggy white foam. Nose has sticky pine in a shelf turd kind of way. Marmalade. Buttery toast. Very spicy hop. Taste has a buttery sweetness before a huge hit of piny sappy herbal bitterness. Some IBUs going on here. Big body with drinkability. Hugely bitter finish. Sappy and rich. Pretty bonkers actually. Nice.

Bottle via the online shop. Hazed gold. Thin sturdy white foam is nicely leggy. Nose has loads of oak. Sweet grain. Fresh hop. Bit of leather. Bit of cow shit. Bit of apple pomace. No way this isn’t ridiculous. Taste is juicy tart leathery oaky tangy bitter and semi sweet. Clean and tangy spritzy mouthfeel. Tart juicy hoppy finish. You could elaborate for ages but push comes to shove I could neck beer like this all day every day.
