Bottle. Sainsbongo’s. Clear pale gold. Slim white foam. Well it’s not like you’re gonna get something out of the ordinary. Solid Helles here. Clean and tasty. Floral maybe. Drinks great. The head could have lasted longer but other than that. Nicely bitter finish.

Bottle via my mate Trevor. Smoothie looking dark, orangey pink. Slim dense lasting white foam. Looks boss. Nose has peach stone and ripe flesh. Peach sorbet. Hint of yogurt. Light oak. Light funk. Taste is semi sweet with lots of peach yogurt character. Juicy and lightly tart. Touch of bitterness. No acidity. Juicy fruity belter. Not overly complex but it got sank in no time.

Can. Ordered online and delivered by the brewer the next day. Light haze on a pale straw gold. Film and ring of white. Nose has light dry bready grain. Very lemony. Pith and zest. Some notes of white peach. Taste has a brief sweetness with a moderate pithy bitterness. Light body and very easy drinking overall. Decent depth at the 3.8. Light dry light bitter finish. Nice fresh quaffer.

Bottle presumably from 3F. Or maybe Etre. Dunno. Hazed pale ruby red. Slim ring of very dense pale pink head. Nose has warmed sweet dessert cherry. Vanilla. Chocolate. Some leathery oak. Bit of a Neapolitan ice cream vibe. Taste is dry, light tart, and a cherry sweetness on top. Drinks like pop with barely a trace of acidity. Juicy cherry flesh and cherry stone on the finish.

Can. Dram Shop I think. Or Mitchell’s Wines. Hazed glowing gold. Slim super sticky white foam. Lots of syrupy peach and pineapple. Ripe orange. Sticky cereal. You know what you’re in for here. Taste is overwhelmingly sweet with a very late arrival of some citrus bitterness. This is grim. Has it even finished fermenting? Awful.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. Hazed yellow gold. Beautiful swede is dense lasting glossy white. Nose has yeasty bready malt. Floral and fruity along the lines of ripe dessert pear. Taste has some sweetness with an estery bitterness. Very easy drinking with foamy rolling carbonation. Fruity estery lightly bitter finish. Great stuff assisted by the fact it looks tremendous.

Can ordered online and delivered by the brewer the next day. Hazed fairly deep orange. Slim lasting white foam. Nose has bready light biscuity malts. Some orange peel. A herbal note courtesy of the juniper berry addition. Taste has a definite medicinal quality again courtesy of the juniper. Quite dry and moderately bitter. Very little sweetness here. Light bodied but not without flavour. Crisp dry light bitter finish. Nice one. The juniper works really well.
